subject in mailto hyperlink formula ignoring characters after & in cell

Visitor

Hello, 

 

I am hoping someone can help with the below formula. I have it working, however when cell F contains an "&" in the text the email subject cuts off from this point and does not pull in the full sentence. SO for instance row 7 Column F pulls in "R9.6 UDMK-953 (D" to the email. Row 6 Column F pulls in the whole sentence.

 

=HYPERLINK(mailto:&Sheet2!$J$2&"""?subject="&$E$1&" "&$A6&" "&$F6&"","Send Email")
