Important read this :

The code on this page is working with Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail.
With SendMail it is not possible to :

1) Send text in the Body of the mail
2) Use the CC or BCC field
3) Attach other files

If you want to have the options above and more and use Outlook you
can use one of the Outlook object model examples on my mail index page.

Copy the code in a Standard module, if you just started with VBA see this page.

Example 1

The following subroutine sends a newly created workbook with just the visible cells
in the Range("A1:K50").The cells will be PasteSpecial as values in the workbook you send.

It is saving the workbook before mailing it with a date/time stamp.
After the file is sent the workbook will be deleted from your hard disk.

Change the mail address and subject in the macro before you run it.
Note: if you use Windows Live Mail the address must exist in your contacts.

If you change "ron@debruin.nl" to "" it will display the mail so you can add text in the body for example.

Information

In the macro you see that if Val(Application.Version) < 12  is True that I use
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
This is the normal Excel workbook format in 2000-2003

If you run the code in Excel 2007-2010 it will save the new file as xlsx
But you can change that if you want

Options for all Excel versions :

Save the one sheet workbook to csv, txt or prn.
FileExtStr = ".csv": FileFormatNum = 6
FileExtStr = ".txt": FileFormatNum = -4158
FileExtStr = ".prn": FileFormatNum = 36

Options only for Excel 2007-2010 :

This are the main formats in Excel 2007-2010 :

51 = xlOpenXMLWorkbook (without macro's in 2007-2010, xlsx)
52 = xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled (with or without macro's in 2007-2010, xlsm)
50 = xlExcel12 (Excel Binary Workbook in 2007-2010 with or without macro’s, xlsb)
56 = xlExcel8 (97-2003 format in Excel 2007-2010, xls)

FileExtStr = ".xlsb": FileFormatNum = 50
FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
FileExtStr = ".xlsm": FileFormatNum = 52
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = 56



Example 2

The following subroutine sends a newly created workbook with just the visible cells
in the Selection. The cells will be PasteSpecial as values in the workbook you send.

It is saving the workbook before mailing it with a date/time stamp.
After the file is sent the workbook will be deleted from your hard disk.

Change the mail address and subject in the macro before you run it.
Note: if you use Windows Live Mail the address must exist in your contacts.

If you change "ron@debruin.nl" to "" it will display the mail so you can add text in the body for example.
