I am using a below code that is pasting a table from excel to the outlook file. However, right now the table is pasted on the very bottom of the email - after the signature.
What I would like to achieve is to have the table inserted after a word "region." and before "Regards" - so before signature.
Dim FileExtStr As String
Dim FileFormatNum As Long
Dim Sourcewb As Workbook
Dim Destwb As Workbook
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim DateString As String
Dim FolderName As String
Dim myOutlook As Object
Dim myMailItem As Object
Dim mySubject As String
Dim myPath As String
Dim i As Integer
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
End With
'Prompt for Email Subject
Set outlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
weeknumber = "Week " & WorksheetFunction.WeekNum(Now, vbMonday)
'mySubject = InputBox("Subject for Email")
For i = 2 To 3
region = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 5).Value
mySubject = "Overdue Milestones | " & weeknumber & " | " & region
'Copy every sheet from the workbook with this macro
Set Sourcewb = ActiveWorkbook
'Create new folder to save the new files in
DateString = Format(Now, "yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss")
FolderName = "C:\Users\mxr0520\Desktop\Ignite Reports\Milestones\" & weeknumber
If i < 3 Then
MkDir FolderName
Else
End If
'Copy every visible sheet to a new workbook
Set sh = Sheets(region)
'If the sheet is visible then copy it to a new workbook
If sh.Visible = -1 Then
sh.Copy
'Set Destwb to the new workbook
Set Destwb = ActiveWorkbook
'Determine the Excel version and file extension/format
With Destwb
If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then
'You use Excel 97-2003
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
Else
'You use Excel 2007-2016
If Sourcewb.Name = .Name Then
MsgBox "Your answer is NO in the security dialog"
GoTo GoToNextSheet
Else
FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
End If
End If
End With
'Change all cells in the worksheet to values if you want
If Destwb.Sheets(1).ProtectContents = False Then
With Destwb.Sheets(1).UsedRange
.Cells.Copy
.Cells.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
.Cells(1).Select
End With
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
'Save the new workbook, email it, and close it
'Set otlNewMail = outlApp.CreateItem(myMailItem)
Set OutLookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.application")
Set OutlookMailitem = OutLookApp.CreateItem(0)
With OutlookMailitem
.display
End With
Signature = OutlookMailitem.htmlbody
With Destwb
.SaveAs FolderName _
& "\" & Destwb.Sheets(1).Name & FileExtStr, _
FileFormat:=FileFormatNum
End With
myPath = ActiveWorkbook.path & "\" & ActiveWorkbook.Name
With Destwb
.Close False
End With
With OutlookMailitem
.Subject = mySubject
.To = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 6)
.CC = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 7)
.htmlbody = "Dear All," & "<br>" _
& "<br>" _
& "Attached please find the list of milestones that are <b>overdue</b> and <b>due in 14 days</b> for " & region & "." & "<br>" & "<br>" & "Regards," & "<br>" _
& "Marek" _
& Signature
.Attachments.Add myPath
Worksheets("Summary").Range("A1:E14").Copy
Set vInspector = OutlookMailitem.GetInspector
Set weditor = vInspector.WordEditor
wEditor.Application.Selection.Start = Len(.body)
wEditor.Application.Selection.End = wEditor.Application.Selection.Start
wEditor.Application.Selection.Paste
.display
End With
Set OutlookMailitem = Nothing
End If
thank you for help in advance!
You can use the following properties to customize the message body:
Body - a string representing the clear-text body of the Outlook item.
HTMLBody - a string representing the HTML body of the specified item.
The Word Editor. The WordEditor property of the
Inspector
class returns an instance of the Word Document which represents the message body. You can find all these ways described in the Chapter 17: Working with Item Bodies in MSDN.The Outlook object model doesn't provide any property or method for detecting signatures. You parse the message body and try to find such places.
However, when you create a signature in Outlook, three files (HTM, TXT and RTF) are created in the following folders:
Vista and Windows 7/8/10:
Windows XP:
Application Data
andAppData
are hidden folders, change the view in the Windows explorer so it shows hidden files and folders if you want to see the files.So, you read the content of these files and try to find the corresponding content in the message body. Note, users may type a custom signature in the end of emails.
Probably easiest to do this by creating an .oft (Outlook Email Template) with the message body and a placeholder for "region" and the table. Create the template without a signature, it will be added automatically per your Outlook user settings, later. I create a template like this, and save as .oft:
Then simply create the new mailitem with
Set OutlookMailitem = OutlookApp.CreateItemFromTemplate({path to your template.oft})
, replace the "region" placeholder, and copy/paste the table to the table placeholder's location.As you can see, the final email contains my default signature (which was not part of the template.oft file).
