Background.
Ordering system that has items, with stock levels and notificiation levels.

Situation
When an order is accepted I need to check each item in the order to see if it has gone below the notification level.

Problem
I can do this, but I want to stuff details about each item (name, current quantity, notification level) into the body of an email message and fire it off.

The best I have come up with is to populate a temp table with the results of a select and then to loop through the temp table (I was going to troll and say "using a cursor" :-) putting the data into a @bodyText variable.

Is there any way of getting the data directly into the @bodyText variable, or a better way of doing this?
