I have a worksheet with given data,
I need to email the data using Microsoft Outlook in the required format for a specific date.
Say the date is 05 Jan 2015.
This is how the email should look,
The code is written in the modules of the Excel 2007 workbook,
Public Function FormatEmail(Sourceworksheet As Worksheet, Recipients As Range, CoBDate As Date)
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim rows As Range
On Error GoTo FormatEmail_Error
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
For Each rows In Recipients.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If rows.value Like "?*#?*.?*" Then
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.To = rows.value
.Subject = "Reminder"
.Body = "Hi All, " & vbNewLine & _
vbNewLine
.display
End With
On Error GoTo 0
Set OutMail = Nothing
End If
Next rows
On Error GoTo 0
Exit Function
FormatEmail_Error:
Set OutApp = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & " (" & Err.Description & ") in procedure FormatEmail of Module modOutlook"
End Function
If you want to create nicely formatted Outlook emails then you need to generate emails with formatting. Pure text-based-emails are evidently not sufficient and hence you must be looking for HTML formatted emails. If that's the case you probably aim to dynamically create HTML code with your VBA to mimic the nice visual representation of Excel.
Under the following link http://www.quackit.com/html/online-html-editor/ you'll find an online HTML editor which allows you to prepare a nicely formatted email and then shows you the HTML code which is necessary to get this formatting. Afterwards you just need to set in VBA the email body to this HTML code using
.HTMLBody = "your HTML code here"
instead of
.Body = "pure text email without formatting"
If that is not sufficient and you want to copy / paste parts of your Excel into that email then you'll have to copy parts of your Excel, save them as a picture, and then add the picture to your email (once again using HTML). If this is what you want then you'll find the solution here:
Using VBA Code how to export excel worksheets as image in Excel 2003?
Here is the answer for that serves the purpose. The html body is build using string builder concept and the email is formed as required(Altered the sub of email from the post). This is working fine.
Public Function FormatEmail(Sourceworksheet As Worksheet, CoBDate As Date, FinalRatioLCR As Variant, FinalRatioAUD As Variant)

I am trying to generate several Mails with a text body and a scaled background image. Everything works out, the only problem is, that the background image appears many times instead of one time with the correct scale.

My aim is to paste a range as an image into an Outlook email. I turned on the references in the VBA editor for MS Excel, Word and Outlook 15.0 as my latest version on my network.
I've spent hours looking through previously answered similar questions.
I cannot save the image as a temporary file/use html to reference the attachment as a solution due to other users not having access to specific drives where it would be temporarily saved if they ran the code on their own machines.
If I remove the email body section the image pastes fine however if I have both pieces of code in together, the email body writes over the image. I do however need the image to be pasted within the email body text.
Sub CreateEmail()
Dim OlApp As Object
Dim OlMail As Object
Dim ToRecipient As Variant
Dim CcRecipient As Variant
Dim PictureRange As Range
Dim OApp As Object, OMail As Object, signature As String
Set OlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OlMail = OlApp.createitem(olmailitem)
ExtractName = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("macros").Range("C11").Value
ToRecipient = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("macros").Range("K11")
OlMail.Recipients.Add ToRecipient
CC_Check = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("macros").Range("k10")
If CC_Check = "" Then GoTo Skip_CC
CcRecipient = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("macros").Range("K10")
OlMail.Recipients.Add CcRecipient
OlMail.Subject = ExtractName
signature = OlMailbody
With OlMail
Set PictureRange = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("DCTVV").Range("A2:D13")
PictureRange.Copy
OlMail.Display
'This section pastes the image
Dim wordDoc As Word.Document
Set wordDoc = OlMail.GetInspector.WordEditor
wordDoc.Range.PasteAndFormat wdChartPicture
'This section is the email body it needs inserting into
OlMail.body = "Text here," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
"Today's report is attached." & vbNewLine & _
"IMAGE NEEDS TO BE PASTED HERE" _
& vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "More text here" _
& vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Kind regards,"

End With
Set OMail = Nothing
Set OApp = Nothing
OlMail.Attachments.Add ("filepath &attachment1")
OlMail.Attachments.Add ("filepath &attachment2")
'OlMail.Attachments.Add ("filepath &attachment3")
OlMail.Display
End Sub
From what I understand the picture pastes fine to email's body, right?
In this case you might just need to add .HTMLBody like so:
olMail.HTMLBody = "Text here," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
"Today's report is attached." & vbNewLine & _
.HTMLBody & _
vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "More text here" & _
vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Kind regards,"

Now if you can already create the images, just save them on the workbook path and you can attach them like this. When attaching images I suggest you that the names of the files don't contain spaces, found out this the hard way until figured it out, html won't like them with spaces.
If your code suddenly stopped working after migrating to Office 365 or for any other reasons, please refer to the code below. Comments have been added for easy understanding and implementation.
If you have administrative rights then try the registry changes given at below link:

However, as developer, I recommend a code that's rather compatible with all versions of Excel instead of making system changes because system changes will be required on each end user's machine as well.
As the VBA code below use 'Late Binding', it's also compatible with all previous and current versions of MS Office viz. Excel 2003, Excel 2007, Excel 2010, Excel 2013, Excel 2016, Office 365

I've used an example to create code to send emails from Excel (with Outlook), using a "Button" (red in my file).

I want to add a condition.
The selected range of rows should be copied to the body of the email if the "X" symbol is written in the column "A".
In my example, rows n° 1, 2 and n° 5 should be copied.
The two tasks here are separate so I would code them as such. Here would be my approach. Separate your sub into two logical procedures.
Determine the body range
Send the email with the range
Determine the body range
Link your button to this macro. The macro will take an input and convert it into a single column range (Column B). We will then loop through the selected range and look at Column A to determine if there is an x or not. If an x is present, we will resize the range back to it's original size and add it to a collection of cells (Final).
Once the loop is complete, the macro will then do one of the following:
If the range is empty, it will prompt your message box and end the sub (your email macro is never initiated)
If the range is not empty, we will call your EMAIL macro and pass the range along to it.
Sub EmailRange()
Dim Initial As Range, Final As Range, nCell As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set Initial = Sheets("TEST").Application.InputBox("Range", xTitleId, "B1:K20", Type:=8)
On Error GoTo 0
For Each nCell In Initial.Resize(Initial.Rows.Count, 1)
If nCell.Offset(, -1) = "X" Then
If Not Final Is Nothing Then
Set Final = Union(Final, nCell.Resize(1, Initial.Columns.Count))
Else
Set Final = nCell.Resize(1, Initial.Columns.Count)
End If
End If
Next nCell
If Not Final Is Nothing Then
MAIL Final
Else
MsgBox "ATTENZIONE!!!" & vbNewLine & "Seleziona un range di celle valido.", vbOKOnly
End If
End Sub
Send the email with the range
Notice that the macro now has an input (On first line). If the sub is called, you no longer need to validate anything since this was all done in the original sub!

Dim StrBodyIn As String, StrBodyEnd As String

I continue my work starting from the 1st question here:
Excel VBA - Outlook Email - Body created with rows having a particular value
Now i have another problem.
I want to repeat the below MACROs on all the SHEETS of my file.
In particular, how can I repeat this function on different SHEETS by only clicking in 1 button present in all the sheets?
All the sheets have the same structure.
I mean, the table resulting in the email must be implemented by adding the datas in all the sheets.
The data should be copied starting from the 1st sheet, for ex. TEST(1) to the last sheet, TEST(9).
The email generated after this process must be ONLY one.

With this post: How to add default signature in Outlook the signature is added when the .display method is used.
The signature I want to show is for user number 1. I've selected the corresponding signature as a default signature for new messages.
This signature contains a picture, but this doesn't seem to cause any problems.
I wouldn't want the macro to show the mail every time it sends the mail, because I want to avoid the constant blinking on the screen.
I tried to look for something like "hide" method from here but didn't find anything useful (.display would run in the background, and it would stay hidden from the user). Other idea was to add application.screenupdating = false and correspondingly true in the end, but this didn't have any impact.
How could I display the email in the background without showing it every time to the user?
