Hi.
I use the RangetoHTML-Sub from rondebruin.nl to paste the selected range in Outlook. It has been working perfectly for months, but has suddenly stopped.

This is the code I have been using

Code:
Sub SendEmailToStores()


    Dim SendEmail   As Variant
    
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim OutApp As Object
    Dim OutMail As Object
    
    Dim strBody As String
    Dim strSignature As String


    Set rng = Nothing
    On Error Resume Next
    'Only the visible cells in the selection
    
    Worksheets("TEMP").Activate
    last_row = ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
    last_col = ActiveSheet.Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
    
    Set rng = Sheets("TEMP").Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(last_row, last_col)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
'    Set rng = Sheets("TEMP").Range("A1:F3").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
    
    strBody = "Please will you order the following for us:" & "

"
    strSignature = "

" & "Thank you"
    
    SendEmail = MsgBox("Would you like to review the order email to stores before sending it?", vbYesNoCancel, "Review email")
        With OutMail
        .To = {email address}
        .CC = ""
        .BCC = ""
        .Subject = "Canine Genetics Order"
        .HTMLBody = strBody & RangetoHTML(rng) & strSignature
'        .HTMLBody = strBody & RangetoHTML(rng) & strSignature
            If SendEmail = vbCancel Then Exit Sub
            If SendEmail = vbYes Then
             'compile but don't send email
                .Display
            End If
            If SendEmail = vbNo Then
             'compile and send email
                .Send   'or use .Display
            End If
        End With
    
    On Error GoTo 0


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


    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing




End Sub


Function RangetoHTML(rng As Range)
' Changed by Ron de Bruin 28-Oct-2006
' Working in Office 2000-2016
    Dim fso As Object
    Dim ts As Object
    Dim TempFile As String
    Dim TempWB As Workbook
    


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


    '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


    '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

By stepping over the code line by line I realised that it gets to this specific point in the RangetoHTML function, and then skips the rest of the function entirely, and continues with the SendEmailToStores subroutine.
Code:
    With TempWB.PublishObjects.Add( _
         SourceType:=xlSourceRange, _
         Filename:=TempFile, _
         Sheet:=TempWB.Sheets(1).Name, _
         Source:=TempWB.Sheets(1).UsedRange.Address, _
         HtmlType:=xlHtmlStatic)

Does anyone have any ideas why this was working, and has suddenly stopped?
