    Sending Attachment from Excel through Outlook

    I just tried this yesterday and it worked fine. Now it's not working. Can anyone shed some insight? It goes through the entire code but I don't see it sending an email from Outlook.


    'Code updated for Outlook 2010'
    Dim OutlookApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim MItem As Object
    Dim UserId As String

    Set OutlookApp = New Outlook.Application

    Set MItem = OutlookApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)

    On Error Resume Next
    With MItem
    .To = "strTo"
    .Subject = strSubject
    .BodyFormat = olFormatHTML
    .HTMLBody = strMessageBody
    .Attachments.Add strAttachmentPaths
    .Send
    End With
    On Error GoTo 0

    Set OutlookApp = Nothing

    I see that I have a quote around "strTo", could that cause the problem? Since strTo is already itself, I'm not sure what adding quotes to an existing string would mean.

    That will be a problem, Outlook will treat the string 'strTo' as an email or try and look it up in your address book.

    Try removing the "".

    That worked, thanks! I probably inserted the quote there when I was hard-coding an email address.
