Auto Generate Outlook Mail Message from Excel 2007 (If row contains todays date)

[Manieldunk]

Hello, I have a shipment tracking log sheet for shipment tracking numbers and a sheet of customer names and emails. I want to automatically send out the tracking information to customers for orders that shipped on today's date. Some customers are distributors and can have multiple orders ship each day. Current tracking log is opened first thing in morning and closed once at end of day.

Goal:

At application close:
message box asking user if they want to email tracking information from today's date

If user clicks yes,

Excel needs to sort the information based on customer name and the date cells with todays date. Then it needs to send out an outlook email message using the email addresses in the Mailinfo sheet. The body of the email needs to contain the information from the rows in excel.

I can get it to work based on usernames and send emails to all in the spreadsheet but I cannot get it to filter and only send the emails to customers whos orders have shipped on todays date. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
