Mail a row or rows to each
person in a range (Attachment)
Important read this :
The code on this page is only working with Outlook and not with Outlook Express or Windows Mail.
If you not use Outlook see the examples in the first section on my mail index page.
Copy the code in a Standard module, if you just started with VBA see this page.

Example 1
Important :
1) The code is not working if your data is a List(Excel 2003) or Table(Excel 2007-2010)
2) The first row in the range must have Headers
3) Turn off AutoFilter before you use the code
4) Be sure that the sheet with the data is the active worksheet
In your worksheet you must have:
In column A : Names of the students or ?
In column B:H : Information about the student or ?
We filter the range A1:H? for every unique name in the name column (column A in this example)
For every unique name we create a new file with only the data of that person and send it to the
mail address it find with the VLookup function in the worksheet "Mailinfo".
Important: You must create this worksheet manual and add the names and mail addresses one time.
Add a worksheet to your workbook with the name "Mailinfo" with in column A the names
and in column B the mail addresses of every possible person in your Name column..
How do I Change filter range and filter column? :
In this example I use the filter range A1:H? (we use all the rows on the sheet)
You can change the filter range and filter column in this two code lines in the macro.
Set FilterRange = Ash.Range("A1:H" & Ash.Rows.Count)
FieldNum = 1 'Filter column = A because the filter range start in A
Tip : For testing I use .Display, change it to .Send if it is working OK.

In column B : E-mail addresses
In column C:H : Information about the student or ?
Note: Every row must have a mail address in column B
We filter the range A1:H? for every unique mail address in column B.
For every unique mail address we create a new file with only the records with that
mail address and send it to that mail address.
