I am trying to develop a macro that will email (through Outlook) the contents that I click on (highlight) in a listbox. I am guessing that for the private sub listbox_click(), that you have to assign a variable a value when you click on the item. And then in the private sub command_button() (which emails), plug that variable into the .Body= section. Here is a catch, the list box item has 4 columns, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Below is the private sub for clicking on the listbox and the private sub for the command button to email. Here is what I have so far:
Code:
Private Sub ListBox1_Click()
Dim Message As Long
Set Message = ListBox.Value
End Sub
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\"

If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then

FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143

End If

Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
