    Hi..

    Try this.... and adapt it as needed..

    In the example.. when you click the button..
    1. It will check if a date in column A (from Row 2 down) is Due today.. if it is. an email will be sent with subject "Due Today!"

    2. It will also check if a date in column A is within 30 days due.. if so.. it will send a email with subject of "Due in x days time"

    It currently displays an email preview.. (change to .Send to skip that and send immediately)..

    Lemme know if that helps

    Re: Get Excel to send automatic email to outlook to attention an action

    Boss,

    How can we insert a reference column to this macro, so that we can identify what is due for x dates

    example:

    Reference in the column B should be taken as subject and send a message "xxxx is due for -3 days"

    Can we able to do that???
    Pls help

    'xxxx' is the code number which should be picked from the column say B (Which will have the code number).

    Example : The Subject should have the value from the column B followed by the text message

    i.e. 0012 is due for -23 days

    Re: Get Excel to send automatic email to outlook to attention an action

    Boss,

    I have enclosed the xlsheet.

    I want an auto generated mail before 30 days of due date of calibration.

    The mail should pick the 'CODE NO' in the column F and the details from B, which should be followed by the text.

    for example :

    if you take the 3rd row in the attached excel sheet

    i want the auto generated mail with the subject as follows

    Subject : "B0001/01 Digimatic Micrometer Due for calibration in 9 days time"

    Body : This is a Reminder for the calibration of B0001/01 Digimatic Micrometer before due date.

    Hope i made you clear about my requirement.

    Advance thanks for your support.

    Hi..

    I am happy to help you.. but.. I think you need to create a new Thread for this.. (re: hijacking a thread)...

    Its not fair to the Original poster .. to deviate away from his/hers requirements..

    You will also find that you may get more targeted help from others also if you create a new thread..

    You can reference this thread if you like..
