Sending Database emails to multiple recipients while tweaking the body - sql-server

Question

i need to send emails to approx, twenty recipients each day, i build a temp table with two columns
Email_Body
Email_address
there are at max 50 rows in the table each day
i want to loop though this table and execute sp_send_email
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
#Profile_name = 'DBA',
#recipients = #email_address,
#body = #Email_Body,
#subject = 'Test Email'
is there a way to do this without a cursor?
any links to an example would be appreciated, i have searched and can't find such an example. i am sure it is a very common process.

Answer 2

I think this code sample would help:
while (#count <=(select COUNT(*) from #table))
begin
select top 1 #Recepient_Email=Emp_Email,#mailBody=body from #table where ID=#count
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
#profile_name='Profile1',
#recipients=#Recepient_Email,
#subject = 'This is subject of test Email'
#body = #mailbody,
#body_format = 'HTML'
set #count =#count +1
END

--Email Campaign.
declare #HtmlModel varchar(max)
declare #HtmlBody varchar(max)
SELECT #HtmlModel = EmailBody
FROM EmailCampaigns
WHERE ID = 1
--a different process will have created an awesome looking well formed html with our known
--placeholders for [FirstName] [LastName] [Phone] [Email] that might ber substituted for individualization
--PRINT #HtmlModel;
SET #HtmlBody=''
declare
#mailID int,
#id int,
#first varchar(64),
#last varchar(64),
#phone varchar(64),
#email varchar(64)
declare c1 cursor for
--################################
SELECT ID,
ISNULL(FirstName,'Friend') AS FirstName,
ISNULL(LastName,'') AS LastName,
ISNULL(Phone,''),
ISNULL(Email ,'')
--the row_number is so that if i put your name in the database five times, you only get a single email.
FROM (
select ROW_NUMBER() over (partition by email order by email,len(firstname)desc,len(lastname)desc ) AS RW, *
from RawContacts
where email <> '') x
WHERE RW = 1
--this WHERe stays in place until we are ready to go LIVE with the email.
and email IN('lowell#somedomain.com','otherReviewer#somedomain.com')
--################################
open c1
fetch next from c1 into #id,#first,#last,#phone,#email
While ##fetch_status <> -1
begin
SET #HtmlBody = REPLACE(#HTMLModel,'[FirstName]',#first)
SET #HtmlBody = REPLACE(#HtmlBody,'[LastName]', #last)
SET #HtmlBody = REPLACE(#HtmlBody,'[Phone]', #phone)
SET #HtmlBody = REPLACE(#HtmlBody,'[Email]', #email)
--EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
#Profile_name = 'Database Mail Profile Name',
#recipients=#email,
#subject = 'Our non profits Call for Volunteers',
#body = #HtmlBody,
#body_format = 'HTML',
#mailitem_id = #mailID OUTPUT
--#body_format = 'TEXT'
INSERT INTO CampaignRecipients(Campaign,RawContactID,MailSentID,MailSentDate)
SELECT 1,#id,#mailID,GETDATE()

end
close c1
deallocate c1
