Hello All,

Thank you for taking time to help me out. I am new to VBA (hint: my username) and am constantly learning new code and their functions. I am to the point where I can take some already written code, fumble through it, and manipulate it to function as I need it. The situation that I'm in now, I have not been able to find exactly what I need.

As I've seen posted in a lot of areas, you can easily take an active worksheet, temporarily save it, open an Outlook message, attach the file, and then send it. After all is done, the code deletes the temp file.

I have a workbook with about 70 worksheets. I want to put one button on each worksheet that will:

  1. Extract that single active worksheet to a new workbook.
  2. Save the new workbook to a specified network drive using the sheet name + today's date as the file name. Example: Access Control 02/11/2012.xlsx.
  3. Open a new Outlook message.
  4. Populate the To:, Subject:, and Body with my own addresses and text.
  5. Attach the recently saved workbook.
  6. And then finally display the message and not send it. I believe this will use .display instead of .send in the code.
  7. Somewhere in here too, when done attaching the file, close the new workbook.


The code listed below partially works for me, but I'm sure there are things in there that I don't need, and probably a few extra things that I need.

Code:
Sub Mail_ActiveSheet()
'Working in 2000-2010
    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 sheet 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 2000-2003
            FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
        Else
            'You use Excel 2007-2010, we exit the sub when your answer is
            'NO in the security dialog that you only see  when you copy
            'an sheet from a xlsm file with macro's disabled.
            If Sourcewb.Name = .Name Then
                With Application
                    .ScreenUpdating = True
                    .EnableEvents = True
                End With
                MsgBox "Your answer is NO in the security dialog"
                Exit Sub
            Else
                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 If
    End With

    '    'Change all cells in the worksheet to values if you want
      '  With Destwb.Sheets(1).UsedRange
      '      .Cells.Copy
      '     .Cells.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
      '      .Cells(1).Select
      '  End With
      '   Application.CutCopyMode = False

    'Save the new workbook/Mail it/Delete it
    TempFilePath = "Z:\ABC\ABC Terminal\ASOC\ABC Matrix Reports"
    TempFileName = ActiveSheet.Name & " " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yyyy")


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

    With Destwb
        .SaveAs TempFileName & FileExtStr, _
                FileFormat:=FileFormatNum
        On Error Resume Next
        With OutMail
            .To = "[email protected]"
            .CC = ""
            .BCC = ""
            .Subject = "ABC Matrix Report " & Format(Date, "mm/dd/yyyy")
            .body = ""
            .Attachments.Add Destwb.FullName
            'You can add other files also like this
            '.Attachments.Add ("C:\test.txt")
            .display   'or use .Display
        End With
        On Error Resume Next
        .Close SaveChanges:=True
    End With

    
    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing

    With Application
        .ScreenUpdating = True
        .EnableEvents = True
    End With
End Sub
Also, when I am writing text in the body of the email, how would I go about making a particular section of text red?
Code:
.body = "How would I make this string text red?"
Thanks again for any help provided. I continue to research and learn more as I go along and hope for this to be a great learning experience.
