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.

Check out this page for Tips If you want to change the code on this page.

Example 1

The following subroutine sends the whole ActiveSheet in the body of the mail without pictures.
Don't forget to copy the function RangetoHTML in the same module.
You only have to change the mail address in the macro before you can run the macro.

If you use Office 2002-2010 see this page for an example with pictures.

Important: Read also the information below the macro

Tips

If you want to add a few text lines above the HTML body you can add this to the macro.
Note: This is not working if Word is your mail editor in Outlook 2000-2003, you can change
this setting in Outlook: Tools>Options>…Mail Format tab

Add this Dim line

    Dim StrBody As String

Build the string you want to add

    StrBody = "This is line 1" & "<br>" & _
              "This is line 2" & "<br>" & _
              "This is line 3" & "<br><br><br>"

Or use this for cell values

    StrBody = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Value & "<br>" & _
              Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A2").Value & "<br>" & _
              Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A3").Value & "<br><br><br>"

And change the HTMLBody line to this

        .HTMLBody = StrBody & RangetoHTML(rng)

Early Binding

If you want to use the the Intellisense help showing you the properties and methods of the objects as you
type you can use Early binding. (bit faster but have problems when you distribute your workbooks)

See Dick's site for a explanation
http://www.dicks-clicks.com/excel/olBinding.htm

Add a reference to the Microsoft outlook Library

1) Go to the VBA editor, Alt -F11
2) Tools>References in the Menu bar
3) Place a Checkmark before Microsoft Outlook ? Object Library
    ? is the Excel version number

Then replace this three lines in the code

Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object

Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

With this three

Dim OutApp As Outlook.Application
Dim OutMail As Outlook.MailItem

Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
