Hi all,

I have been using 2 of Ron De Bruin's codes to send emails with attachments from Excel. Actually they are great and working perfectly but I need to combine 2 of them so I would only send one email to each receipient rather than 2 emails one with external attachments and another with filtered active sheet.

first code I am using is below - this looks at column L for the receipient and looks at database sheet column V:W for email lookup and creates an email for each receipient in coulmn L in active sheet and sends filtered excel file as attachment to the email;

Option Explicit
Sub Send_Ivoice_List()
'Working in 2000-2010
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim rng As Range
Dim Ash As Worksheet
Dim Cws As Worksheet
Dim Rcount As Long
Dim Rnum As Long
Dim FilterRange As Range
Dim FieldNum As Integer
Dim mailAddress As String
Dim NewWB As Workbook
Dim TempFilePath As String
Dim TempFileName As String
Dim FileExtStr As String
Dim FileFormatNum As Long
On Error GoTo cleanup
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
'Set filter sheet, you can also use Sheets("MySheet")
Set Ash = ActiveSheet
'Set filter range and filter column (column with names)
Set FilterRange = Ash.Range("A1:O" & Ash.Rows.Count)
FieldNum = 12 'Filter column = L because the filter range start in column A
'Add a worksheet for the unique list and copy the unique list in A1
Set Cws = Worksheets.Add
FilterRange.Columns(FieldNum).AdvancedFilter _
Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
CopyToRange:=Cws.Range("A1"), _
CriteriaRange:="", Unique:=True
'Count of the unique values + the header cell
Rcount = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Cws.Columns(1))
'If there are unique values start the loop
If Rcount >= 2 Then
For Rnum = 2 To Rcount
'Look for the mail address in the Database worksheet
mailAddress = ""
On Error Resume Next
mailAddress = Application.WorksheetFunction. _
VLookup(Cws.Cells(Rnum, 1).Value, _
Worksheets("Database").Range("V2:W" & _
Worksheets("Database").Rows.Count), 2, False)
On Error GoTo 0
If mailAddress <> "" Then
'Filter the FilterRange on the FieldNum column
FilterRange.AutoFilter Field:=FieldNum, _
Criteria1:=Cws.Cells(Rnum, 1).Value
'Copy the visible data in a new workbook
With Ash.AutoFilter.Range
On Error Resume Next
Set rng = .SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
On Error GoTo 0
End With
Set NewWB = Workbooks.Add(xlWBATWorksheet)
rng.Copy
With NewWB.Sheets(1)
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial Paste:=8
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll
.Cells(1).Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End With
'Create a file name
TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\"
TempFileName = "Invoice Approval - " & Ash.Parent.Name _
& " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm-ss")
If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then
'You use Excel 2000-2003
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
Else
'You use Excel 2007-2010
FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
End If
'Save, Mail, Close and Delete the file
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
With NewWB
.SaveAs TempFilePath & TempFileName _
& FileExtStr, FileFormat:=FileFormatNum
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.to = mailAddress
.Subject = "Invoice Approval List"
.Attachments.Add NewWB.FullName
.Body = "Hi there"
.Display 'Or use Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
.Close savechanges:=False
End With
Set OutMail = Nothing
Kill TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr
End If
'Close AutoFilter
Ash.AutoFilterMode = False
Next Rnum
End If
cleanup:
Set OutApp = Nothing
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Cws.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
With Application
.EnableEvents = True
.ScreenUpdating = True
End With
End Sub

In column Q I have the file path and I like to attach external files to the same emails for each receipients. Ron again has a code for sending files but I need to combine that to above code so they work together.

It might be a simple adjustment to above code in .Attachments.Add NewWB.FullName line but I dont know. I am newbie and have no idea how to do this and what to do.

Ron's send files code is as below;


Option Explicit
Sub Send_Files()
'Working in 2000-2010
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim cell As Range, FileCell As Range, rng As Range
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
Set sh = Sheets("SendFiles")
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
For Each cell In sh.Columns("B").Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
'Enter the file names in the C:Z column in each row
Set rng = sh.Cells(cell.Row, 1).Range("C1:Z1")
If cell.Value Like "?*@?*.?*" And _
Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(rng) > 0 Then
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
With OutMail
.to = cell.Value
.Subject = "Testfile"
.Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value
For Each FileCell In rng.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If Trim(FileCell) <> "" Then
If Dir(FileCell.Value) <> "" Then
.Attachments.Add FileCell.Value
End If
End If
Next FileCell
.Display 'Or use Send
End With
Set OutMail = Nothing
End If
Next cell
Set OutApp = Nothing
With Application
.EnableEvents = True
.ScreenUpdating = True
End With
End Sub

Thanks for your help,
