Hi,

I'm trying to create a template so that I can have VBA prompt me to change items in the subject. I've got a template email with the subject line that should be Project / GC/Client, and in the template I've written that as #0# / #1 #. So far, I'm at the below, but it's erroring. Anyone have any ideas on how to correct?

Thanks!
Code:
Private Sub m_Inspector_Activate()
  dim Item as MailItem
  dim Value as string
  if typeof m_Inspector.currentitem is mailitem then
    set mail=m_Inspector.currentitem
    if mail.subject="subject" then
      value=inputbox("Project")
      mail.subject=replace(mail.subject,"#0#",value)


      value=inputbox("GC/Client")
      mail.subject=replace(mail.subject,"#1#",value)
    endif
  endif
end sub

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
