Hi!

I have excel file which is saved locally in OneDrive folder but is shared within office 365 so can't use VBA.
So I need to run a macro from MS Outlook to copy data from the excel file and past it in the new email's body.
Here is the whole routine I want to automate:
1) Open the excel file
2) In the filter of the B column unselect "0" and empty cells
3) Select and copy filtered predefined range
4) Start new email with specified topic and contacts
5) past the previously copied data into the email's body as a table leaving the original formatting

Don't want to code this from scratch. Maybe you can point me to some similar examples I can use as a base.
Thank you.
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Seems like we've got a lot in common; I don't want to code that from scratch for you either. That's a rather bespoke automation process you've outlined there, so I suspect that you'll need to break it down into its constituent components.

For item 1 ("open the excel file), check out this link.
For items 2 and 3, the answer by Scott should be helpful in terms of selecting non-blank cells: link.
For item 4, use the method at this link.
Finally, the answer for item 5 is amongst the answers here: link

Enjoy!
