Email a selected range using sendmail

[Guest]

By using the adapted code below, I have managed to get the range selected,
copied to another file and sent.
However I cannot get a way to insert text before it is sent.
I wouldif possible like 2 options:
1. to put pre-prepared text into another cell or range
2. type it in as body text, and then hit the Send button.
Many thanks

Hi Peter

With SendMail it is not possible to add text in the body with code
You can stop the macro to do it manual by deleting the e-mail address
.SendMail Recipients:="", Subject:=Subject

Or if you use Outlook use another example from my site
http://www.rondebruin.nl/mail/folder2/mail4.htm

Click on the tip link on that page for body examples

Or maybe CDO is a option if you not use Outlook

Hi Ron
Many thanks/
If I stop the macro, will it then send the same as before after adding my
body text?
