    Excel VBA Email with PDF attachments

    Hi, complete beginner with VBA here. I want to send an email using VBA and attach multiple sheets from the workbook onto the same email, as separate attachments. I found some codes online that attaches a single sheet as a PDF but some of them do not work for me. I'm using Excel-2016. I found one that works but it takes a really long time for the email display to pop up and the code is in no means optimized. Also I'm unable to attach multiple sheets as separate PDFs too.

    Here's my code:
    Sub AttachMultipleSheetPDF()
        Dim IsCreated As Boolean
        Dim i As Long
        Dim PdfFile As String, Title As String
        Dim OutlApp As Object
        ' Not sure for what the Title is
        Title = Range("C11")
        ' Define PDF filename
        PdfFile = ActiveWorkbook.FullName
        i = InStrRev(PdfFile, ".")
        If i > 1 Then PdfFile = Left(PdfFile, i - 1)
        PdfFile = PdfFile & "_" & ActiveSheet.Name & ".pdf"
        ' Export activesheet as PDF
        With Sheets("Hotel Booking")
             .ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=PdfFile, Quality:=xlQualityStandard,              IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=False
        End With
        ' Use already open Outlook if possible
        On Error Resume Next
        Set OutlApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
        If Err Then
             Set OutlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
             IsCreated = True
        End If
        OutlApp.Visible = True
        On Error GoTo 0
        ' Prepare e-mail with PDF attachment
        With OutlApp.CreateItem(0)
             ' Prepare e-mail
             .Subject = Title
             .To = "..." ' <-- Put email of the recipient here
             .CC = "..." ' <-- Put email of 'copy to' recipient here
             .Body = "Hi," & vbLf & vbLf _
             & "The report is attached in PDF format." & vbLf & vbLf _
              & "Regards," & vbLf _
              & Application.UserName & vbLf & vbLf
             .Attachments.Add PdfFile                                                                               
             'Trying to attach Sheets("Hotel Booking") here
             Dim i As Long
             Dim PdfFile2 As String, Title2 As String
             ' Not sure for what the Title is
             Title2 = Range("C15")
             ' Define PDF filename
             PdfFile2 = ActiveWorkbook.FullName
             i = InStrRev(PdfFile2, ".")
             If i2 > 1 Then PdfFile2 = Left(PdfFile, i - 1)
             PdfFile2 = PdfFile2 & "_" & ActiveSheet.Name & ".pdf"
             ' Export activesheet as PDF
             With Sheets("Cache")
                  .ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=PdfFile2, _
                  Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
                  OpenAfterPublish:=False
            End With
            ' Use already open Outlook if possible
            On Error Resume Next
            Set OutlApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
            If Err Then
                Set OutlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
                IsCreated2 = True
            End If
            OutlApp.Visible = True
            On Error GoTo 0
            ' Prepare e-mail with PDF attachment
            With OutlApp.CreateItem(0)
                .Attachments.Add PdfFile2
                'trying to attach Sheets("Cache") here
                ' Try to send
                On Error Resume Next
                .display
                Application.Visible = True
                If Err Then
                    MsgBox "E-mail was not sent", vbExclamation
                Else
                    MsgBox "E-mail successfully sent", vbInformation
                End If
                On Error GoTo 0
            End With
            ' Delete PDF file
            Kill PdfFile
            ' Quit Outlook if it was created by this code
            If IsCreated Then OutlApp.Quit
            ' Release the memory of object variable
            Set OutlApp = Nothing
        End With
    End Sub
    Strapped of time so I also asked this question here:

    Actually scrap that, I just need to attach one sheet as a PDF into one email. I still need the code above to be fast and optimized.

    Hi,

    Firstly I have used your macro and it is amazing. Thanks to you!

    I need the same macro but shall I request more requirements on the same.

    Request if you can add a separate box for the email Subject line and Mail Body in the excel sheet itself so that it can pickup the same.
