Hello.

So I have the below code and it works well up until the part where I want to add attachments.
It doesn't return any error (nor does it jump to the ExitF part), it just goes through and no attachments show in the email body.
Could you please give me a hint what I do wrong?

Code:
Sub sendmail()

Dim objNotes As Object, objNotesDB As Object, objNotesMailDoc, EmbedObj1 As Object
Dim SendItem, NCopyItem, BlindCopyToItem, i As Integer, rtitem
Dim Msg As String

On Error Resume Next

MacroWkb = ThisWorkbook.Name

If Not Err.Number = 0 Then

    Err.Clear
    GoTo ExitF
    
Else

    On Error GoTo ExitF
    
    Set objNotes = CreateObject("Notes.Notessession")
    Set objNotesDB = objNotes.GetDatabase("", "")
    
    Call objNotesDB.OPENMAIL
    
    Set objNotesMailDoc = objNotesDB.CreateDocument
    
    objNotesMailDoc.Form = "Memo"
    
    Set SendItem = objNotesMailDoc.AppendItemValue("SendTo", "")
    Set NCopyItem = objNotesMailDoc.AppendItemValue("CopyTo", "")
'    Set BlindCopyToItem = objNotesMailDoc.AppendItemValue("BlindCopyTo", "")
    
    objNotesMailDoc.SendTo = Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G7").Value
    objNotesMailDoc.CopyTo = Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G8").Value
    objNotesMailDoc.Subject = Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G10").Value
    
    Set rtitem = objNotesMailDoc.CreateRichTextItem("Body")
    
    Body = Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G12").Value & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
            Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G13").Value & vbNewLine & _
            Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G14").Value & vbNewLine & _
            Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G15").Value & vbNewLine & _
            Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G16").Value & vbNewLine & _
            Workbooks(MacroWkb).Sheets("Data").Range("G17").Value & vbNewLine
    
    rtitem.AddNewLine (1)

    Call objNotes.Close
    
    'this part creates and shows new email
    Set workspace = CreateObject("Notes.NotesUIWorkspace")
    Call workspace.EditDocument(True, objNotesMailDoc).GotoField("Body")
    
    'this part adds body to the email
    Set uidocument = workspace.CurrentDocument
    Call uidocument.InsertText(Body)
    
    rtitem.AddNewLine (1)
    
    attachment1 = "C:\temp\Report.xlsm" ' Required File Name

[COLOR=#ff0000]    Set AttachME = objNotesMailDoc.CreateRichTextItem("attachment1")[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#ff0000]    Set EmbedObj1 = AttachME.EmbedObject(1454, "attachment1", "[/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]C:\temp\Report.xlsm[/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]", "") 'Required File Name[/COLOR]
    
    Set objNotes = Nothing
    
    AppActivate "Lotus Notes"
    
    Exit Function
    
End If

ExitF:

Msg = "A draft E-Mail was not created! Please check your network connection and ensure you are logged into Lotus Notes."
MsgBox Msg, vbInformation, "Notesmail Draft..."

End Sub
