Email Excel at attachment

[NeoSez]

Happy Holidays everyone!
Found this script by travieman90. Works awesome-thank you!
However, I wish to email a range as an excel attachment.
Also, I want to it to pause the email so I can proof read the email before I hit send. Currently, it just sends it and I have to look in the sent items to ensure it is sent.
Can someone help me? I tried changing a few things and now I have a mess on hand, with one error after the other.

Thank you to everyone who has been patient and helped me along the way so far. I've learned a lot. Wishing you all the best for 2021.

change :
.Send
to
.Display

then it pops up for the user to review. then they can press send.

your code should save the range as its own workbook.
Then add that file as an attachement.
Then .DISPLAY.

Thanks for your suggestions and the quick response.
I changed the .Send to .Display and it stays now.
I think the following section needs to be changed to be an excel file. It still displays directly in the email as an HTML file, instead of an attachment. I tried to change it to OBJECT but clearly, it is not correct.
How to change it to an excel attachment?

'Publish the sheet to a htm file
With TempWB.PublishObjects.Add( _
SourceType:=xlSourceRange, _
Filename:=TempFile, _
Sheet:=TempWB.Sheets(1).Name, _
Source:=TempWB.Sheets(1).UsedRange.Address, _
HtmlType:=xlHtmlStatic)
.Publish (True)
End With

'Read all data from the htm file into RangetoHTML
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set ts = fso.GetFile(TempFile).OpenAsTextStream(1, -2)
RangetoHTML = ts.readall
ts.Close
RangetoHTML = Replace(RangetoHTML, "align=center x:publishsource=", _
"align=left x:publishsource=")

 

[Adendum]

Did you ever find a solution to send the file as an Excel file rather than HTML?
