Hi, I have a spreadsheet with some code to help send an email (when I run the code) when a certain date is reached.

The code was originally set up to work with Lotus Notes but we are finally using outlook.

Could someone please help me to change the code to run in Outlook and also is it possible for the code to run automatically without having to press any buttons? Thanks :)

Here is the code I use:

Sub sendemail()
Dim WatchRange As Range
Dim IntersectRange As Range
Dim x As Integer
Dim UserName As String
Dim MailDbName As String
Dim Recipient As Variant
Dim Maildb As Object
Dim MailDoc As Object
Dim AttachME As Object
Dim Session As Object
Dim stSignature As String


With Application


.ScreenUpdating = False
.DisplayAlerts = False
' Open and locate current LOTUS NOTES User
For x = 5 To Cells(Rows.Count, "O").End(xlUp).row
If (Range("O" & x).Value <> "OK") And (Range("P" & x).Value <> "Yes") Then
Set Session = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession")
UserName = Session.UserName
MailDbName = Left$(UserName, 1) & Right$(UserName, (Len(UserName) - InStr(1, UserName, " "))) & ".nsf"
Set Maildb = Session.GetDatabase("", MailDbName)
If Maildb.IsOpen = True Then
Else
Maildb.OPENMAIL
End If
' Create New Mail and Address Title Handlers
Set MailDoc = Maildb.CREATEDOCUMENT
MailDoc.Form = "Message"
'stSignature = Maildb.GetProfileDocument("CalendarProfile").GetItemValue("Signature")(0)
' Select range of e-mail addresses
'Recipient = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & x).Value
MailDoc.SendTo = "my email address"
MailDoc.Subject = "Calibration on this item is now due! - " & Range("B" & x).Value
MailDoc.Body = "This item is now due for calibration, please arrange for this to be completed ASAP."
MailDoc.SaveMessageOnSend = True
MailDoc.PostedDate = Now()


On Error GoTo errorhandler1
MailDoc.SEND 0, Recipient
Set Maildb = Nothing
Set MailDoc = Nothing
Set Session = Nothing
.ScreenUpdating = True
.DisplayAlerts = True


errorhandler1:
Set Maildb = Nothing
Set MailDoc = Nothing
Set Session = Nothing


End If
Next x


End With
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
This code will take the active worksheet, save it as a temporary file and emails to your chosen destination. I have it linked to a button although I am sure you'll find some way of automating it based on a specific criteria.

With this code it all happens in the background. You see a message at the end to confirm it has been emailed.

Code:
Sub Mail_ActiveSheet()

    Dim FileExtStr As String
    Dim FileFormatNum As Long
    Dim Sourcewb As Workbook
    Dim Destwb As Workbook
    Dim TempFilePath As String
    Dim TempFileName As String
    Dim OutApp As Object
    Dim OutMail As Object

    With Application
        .ScreenUpdating = False
        .EnableEvents = False
    End With

    Set Sourcewb = ActiveWorkbook

    'Copy the ActiveSheet to a new workbook
    ActiveSheet.Copy
    Set Destwb = ActiveWorkbook

    'Determine the Excel version and file extension/format
    With Destwb
        If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then
            'You use Excel 97-2003
            FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
        Else
            'You use Excel 2007-2016
            Select Case Sourcewb.FileFormat
            Case 51: FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
            Case 52:
                If .HasVBProject Then
                    FileExtStr = ".xlsm": FileFormatNum = 52
                Else
                    FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
                End If
            Case 56: FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = 56
            Case Else: FileExtStr = ".xlsb": FileFormatNum = 50
            End Select
        End If
    End With

    'Save the new workbook/Mail it/Delete it
    TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\"
    TempFileName = "Part of " & Sourcewb.Name & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm-ss")

    Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

    With Destwb
        .SaveAs TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr, FileFormat:=FileFormatNum
        On Error Resume Next
        With OutMail
            .to = "ENTER YOUR EMAIL"
            .CC = ""
            .BCC = ""
            .Subject = "ENTER SUBJECT TITLE"
            .Body = "ANY CONTENT TO THE MESSAGE"
            .Attachments.Add Destwb.FullName
            'You can add other files also like this
            '.Attachments.Add ("C:\test.txt")
            .Send   'or use .Display
        End With
        On Error GoTo 0
        .Close SaveChanges:=False
    End With

    'Delete the file you have send
    'Kill TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr
MsgBox "Thanks for your submission", vbOKOnly

    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing

    With Application
        .ScreenUpdating = True
        .EnableEvents = True
    End With
End Sub
