Can someone please help!

I would like Excel to either :-

a) Send an automated email to every address in column B when saved a(and exited - ideally a pompt box would come up and say "you are sxiting - would you like the email to be sent out?" or
b) Send an automated email to every address in column B when a button is pressed.

All emails can go out To (i.e. does not need to be CC or BCC)

- Subject Header needs to state "Rota Updated"
- Main body of message needs to either state "Please check the rota as it has been recently updated" or copy the cells in sheet1 from C1:h50

Many thanks

Hi there
Below is what I have so far... what I cannot work out, or find on the web is to replace the .To = "" with whatever email addresses are in column B...... Also is there anyway this email can be sent automatically (reason for this is some users could easily just shut down the email)

Code:
Sub Email()
Dim oMailItem As Object
Dim oOLapp As Object
Set oOLapp = CreateObject("Outlook.application")
Set oMailItem = oOLapp.CreateItem(0)
With oMailItem
.To = ""
.CC = ""
.Subject = "**** Rota Update ****"
.Body = "Hello. Please note that the holiday rota has been updated. Please log in to check your shifts"
.Display
End With
Set oOLapp = Nothing
Set oMailItem = Nothing
End Sub


Hi what code have you got so far. Ill help yo amend it to what you need
