Hyperlinks copied into email float around page

Hi fellow excellers - I have used Ron de Bruin VBA code in one of my earlier VBA and am reviving it into a newer workbook. The code works fine, but I have found that when the hyperlink is copied into the email body, instead of appearing 'in line' with the rest of the range, the hyperlink is pasted on its own, much further down the page.

I suspect this is because the hyperlink 'remembers' where it was on the excel sheet (i.e. row 17) and then pasted into the same footprint in the email. Even if there is only one row that needs to be pasted into the email, the hyperlink doesnt accompany the rest of the row, but inserts itself '17 rows' further down the page.

Has anyone experienced this, or have an edit / solution for this?
Thanks!



Function RangetoHTML(rng As Range)

Dim fso As Object
Dim ts As Object
Dim TempFile As String
Dim TempWB As Workbook
Dim Hlink As Hyperlink

TempFile = Environ$("temp") & "/" & Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm-ss") & ".htm"

'Copy the range and create a new workbook to past the data in
rng.Copy
Set TempWB = Workbooks.Add(1)
With TempWB.Sheets(1)
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial Paste:=8
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, , False, False
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats, , False, False
.Cells(1).Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
On Error Resume Next
.DrawingObjects.Visible = True
.DrawingObjects.Delete
On Error GoTo 0
End With

For Each Hlink In rng.Hyperlinks
TempWB.Sheets(1).Hyperlinks.Add _
Anchor:=TempWB.Sheets(1).Range(Hlink.Range.Address), _
Address:=Hlink.Address, _
TextToDisplay:=Hlink.TextToDisplay
Next Hlink

'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=")

'Close TempWB
TempWB.Close savechanges:=False

'Delete the htm file we used in this function
Kill TempFile
Set ts = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
Set TempWB = Nothing
End Function
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
