Hello,


I have a script that automatically attaches a spreadsheet to an email and sends it to an address list.. Some of the users of the spreadsheet have asked for the facilicty to add a comment to the email before it sends.. is this possible?

the code is:


Sub eMailActiveWorkbook()
Dim OL As Object
Dim EmailItem As Object
Dim Wb As Workbook
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set OL = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set EmailItem = OL.CreateItem(olMailItem)
Set Wb = ActiveWorkbook
Wb.Save
With EmailItem
.Subject = "I Fowards Spreadsheet has been updated"
.Body = "" & vbCrLf & _
"" & vbCrLf & _
""
.To = "email address list
.Importance = olImportanceHigh 'Or olImprotanceHigh Or olImprotanceLow
.Attachments.Add Wb.FullName
.Send
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Set Wb = Nothing
Set OL = Nothing
Set EmailItem = Nothing

End Sub



Many many thanks

Bacon

Hi Bacon,

When you say Comment, do you mean some text in the body of the e-mail?

If so, a simple solution would be to prompt for the text and then add it, something like ..


Dim EMailComment
EMailComment = InputBox("Please enter your comment for the E-mail")
.Body = EMailComment

Or do you want something with more flexibility?
