Send individual email to members of a club
Recently a sports club of which I'm a member, has started sending emails out on the same subject matter. Over time the list of recipients is growing, showing names of members and their respective email addresses. The following code provided by Microsoft.com as a learning aid suggests that its possible to send each of the members the same email
Code:
Sub Sample()
'Setting up the Excel variables.
Dim olApp As Object
Dim olMailItm As Object
Dim iCounter As Integer
Dim Dest As Variant
Dim SDest As String
'Create the Outlook application and the empty email.
Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set olMailItm = olApp.CreateItem(0)
'Using the email, add multiple recipients, using a list of addresses in column A.
With olMailItm SDest = ""
For iCounter = 1 To WorksheetFunction.CountA(Columns(1))
If SDest = "" Then
SDest = Cells(iCounter, 1).Value
Else SDest = SDest & ";" & Cells(iCounter, 1).Value
End If
Next iCounter
'Do additional formatting on the BCC and Subject lines, add the body text from the spreadsheet, and send.
.BCC = SDest
.Subject = "FYI"
.Body = ActiveSheet.TextBoxes(1).Text
.Send
End With
'Clean up the Outlook application.
Set olMailItm = Nothing
Set olApp = Nothing
End Sub
How does this work? What procedures does the Secretary take to set up the process?
