    Question MAIL.AddAttachment (Sheets("MAIL").Range("N17").Text) <---- Why is it not working?

    Hello everyone,

    Just trying to send an email (gmail) using VBA CDO in excel and my problem is in the title.

    I'm pretty sure that everyone gets it. I want my mail attachment to be selected in a specific cell (that is doing a Vlookup on a customer name) in one of my sheets:

    Re: MAIL.AddAttachment (Sheets("MAIL").Range("N17").Text) <---- Why is it not working?

    Hello VBAzr,

    Have you verified that the contents of Sheets("MAIL").Range("N17").Text is a fully qualified file path like "C:\Users\Owner\My file.txt" ?
    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross

    Remember To Do the Following....

    1. Use code tags. Place [CODE] before the first line of code and [/CODE] after the last line of code.
    2. Thank those who have helped you by clicking the Star below the post.
    3. Please mark your post [SOLVED] if it has been answered satisfactorily.

    Hello!

    Yes I have! And if I put directly the path inside the code it works... of course...

    MAIL.AddAttachment "C:\Users\Owner\My file.txt"

    Leith,

    it just sends a No Name file...

    so two files are attached in the mail (the JPG I create inside the sheet + the not-working NO NAME attachement)

    Maybe it is because my file is on a server and not on the "C:\"

    Actually, we named it "Z:\" and like I said, the files are on a server... not on the computer.

    Try using the full UNC path, not the local path. So \\ServerName\Share\Folder\MyFile.txt rather than Z:\MyFile.txt

    Try instead the disk name to use IP of the disk: "\\192.168.1.1\Owner\My file.txt"

    Hello VBAzr,

    Try changing the SMTP port numberfrom 25 to 445.
