Guys,

I have pieced together a code using DeBruin's to send emails through Gmail.
I cannot for the life of me add the active workbook as an attachment.

As it currently runs, it attaches a blank attachment.
I have been working on this for hours, but cant get it worked out.:confused:

Appreciate any help.



Sub btnEmailBid_Click()
Dim Mail As New Message
Dim Config As Configuration
Set Config = Mail.Configuration


Config(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
Config(cdoSMTPServer) = "smtp.gmail.com"
Config(cdoSMTPServerPort) = 25
Config(cdoSMTPAuthenticate) = cdoBasic
Config(cdoSMTPUseSSL) = True
Config(cdoSendUserName) = "xxx@abc.com"
Config(cdoSendPassword) = "xxxx"
Config.Fields.Update


Mail.To = "xxx@abc.com"
Mail.From = Config(cdoSendUserName)
Mail.Subject = "New Bid - " & Range("f5").Value & " " & Range("f6")
Mail.TextBody = "Attached are copies of the bid and pics." & " " & vbNewLine & _
"Let me know if you have any questions." & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
"Thanks,"
Mail.AddAttachment ""


On Error Resume Next


Mail.Send


If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox Err.Description, vbCritical, "There was an error."
Exit Sub
End If
 

Excel Facts

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Is this possible?
I know I can send the attachment, just not the active workbook I'm working in.

Thanks

This is where I am having issues. Any time it is something other than the parenthesis, I get an error.
I know it is something simple that I am overlooking.

Thanks
