How to embed an interactive QB report into Outlook meeting Request?

We have a Portfolio Project Governance Application that has ~400 projects. We have three types of governance meetings and have developed our Agendas in a "Review" table. Users can see and pre-review projects on Agenda from within their dashboards. We also need the option to embed the agenda within our Outlook meeting request. Some users will want to link from there and other attendees will not be users. Senior execs attend these meetings so the agenda needs to look crisp, yet interactive.

Please note: these are NOT calendar items, but rather agenda items that need to be embedded easily into an Outlook agenda.

Problem: I can highlight the agenda report and paste into an Outlook meeting invite agenda space. The project IDs on the agenda properly take a user to the right project, but the visual aesthetics are so crude that it is unusable in current form. (pic attached)
  • Is there a better way to embed this report rather than cut/paste?
  • Is there a way to remove / improve the column and header defects shown on the attached pic?
Thanks in advance for your help!

If you don't want that first column included in your copy and paste then you will need to have a button on the form that would re-display the parent record with a different embedded report that doesn't include that column.

I can't explain why the last column heading is missing but if it's a case that the last column headings it's always missing when you do a copy and paste than one option would be to have that alternate report include a very skinny  last column with nothing in it
