Hello - I have automated an email message in VBA and everything works perfectly, I'm just doing some fine tuning for aesthetic purposes. I'm sending multiple emails to different people based on the criteria in row 6. In order to do so, I'm using a filter, but I only want the filtered cells to be copied into the email. Instead I have to select a large range in order to ensure that everything is copied in. How do I get it to only copy cells with data?
Sub LEQO_Status_Update()
Dim rng As Range
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim strbody As String
Dim SigString As String
Dim Signature As String
'----------LEQO-----------------
'This filters the past due report down to one carrier
Sheets("3PPD").Select
Rows("3:3").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=6, Criteria1:="LEQO"
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
strbody = "<p style='font-family:arial;font-size:12'>Good Morning,<br></H3>" & _
"<p style='font-family:arial;font-size:12'>Can I get a status update and Tr#'s on the following shipments before 1000, please?<br>"
SigString = "C:\Documents and Settings\eblair\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures\Standard.htm"
If Dir(SigString) <> "" Then
Signature = GetBoiler(SigString)
Else
Signature = ""
End If
Set rng = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
'Only the visible cells in the selection
'Set rng = Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
'You can also use a range if you want
Set rng = Sheets("3PPD").Range("B3:G30").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
On Error GoTo 0
If rng Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "The selection is not a range or the sheet is protected" & _
vbNewLine & "please correct and try again.", vbOKOnly
Exit Sub
End If
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.To = "email@email.com"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "Status Update"
.HTMLBody = strbody & "<br><br>" & RangetoHTML(rng) & Signature
.Send 'or use .Display
