Hello,
I help your help and experience to help me solve a thing. I have an excel file with some values and formatting done and I have a macro that sends that info to the mail body, but I also have to put 2 or 3 images in that same mail body.
Is this even possible??
Thanks in advance for the replies
Welcome to the forum! The answer is yes.
The two methods in Outlook are either htmlBody or Word Editor. Ron de Bruin explains the methods with examples at: https://www.rondebruin.nl/win/s1/outlook/mail.htm
In the htmlBody method, add html code tags like "img src". In the Word Editor method, add the images to a range, and then copy and paste using Word methods.
If you want to insert images in the body of the text as opposed to attaching them, then you can use the Word document inspector to process the message body with VBA as if it was a Word document without having to worry about HTML tags e.g. the following is based on a code I have posted previously, with the addition of two images.
It is basically a matter of setting the ranges to where you want the texts and images. In this example there is text, followed by the Excel range, followed by text, then an image, more text, a second image, and again more text. Note the comments in the code!
