Dear Techies,

I'm using a macro that sends the complete excel file via the lotus notes mailbox. However, I want only a particular range(for e.g. C130) alone to be sent in the mail.

When I do this myself, I copy the range and paste it as "Bitmap" (by paste special option) in the new mail memo to preserve the formatting of the range.

can someone help me with the code?

Here is the code that I use:

Sub SendNotesMail()
Dim Subject As String
Dim Attachment As String
Dim Recipient As String
Dim BodyText As String
Dim SaveIt As Boolean
'Set up the objects required for Automation into lotus notes
Dim Maildb As Object 'The mail database
Dim UserName As String 'The current users notes name
Dim MailDbName As String 'THe current users notes mail database name
Dim MailDoc As Object 'The mail document itself
Dim AttachME As Object 'The attachment richtextfile object
Dim Session As Object 'The notes session
Dim EmbedObj As Object 'The embedded object (Attachment)
'Start a session to notes
Set Session = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession")
'Next line only works with 5.x and above. Replace password with your password
'Get the sessions username and then calculate the mail file name
'You may or may not need this as for MailDBname with some systems you
'can pass an empty string or using above password you can use other mailboxes.
UserName = Session.UserName
MailDbName = Left$(UserName, 1) & Right$(UserName, (Len(UserName) - InStr(1, UserName, " "))) & ".nsf"
'Open the mail database in notes
Set Maildb = Session.GETDATABASE("", MailDbName)
If Maildb.IsOpen = True Then
'Already open for mail
Else
Maildb.OPENMAIL
End If
'Set up the new mail document
Set MailDoc = Maildb.CREATEDOCUMENT
MailDoc.Form = "Memo"
MailDoc.sendto = "xxxx.yyyy@zzz.com"
MailDoc.Subject = "Test mail"
MailDoc.Body = "Body"
MailDoc.SAVEMESSAGEONSEND = True 'Gets the mail to appear in the sent items folder
'Set up the embedded object and attachment and attach it
If Attachment <> "" Then
Set AttachME = MailDoc.CREATERICHTEXTITEM("Attachment")
Set EmbedObj = AttachME.EMBEDOBJECT(1454, "", "", "")
MailDoc.CREATERICHTEXTITEM ("AttachME")
End If
'Send the document
MailDoc.PostedDate = Now()
MailDoc.SEND 0, Recipient
'Clean Up
Set Maildb = Nothing
Set MailDoc = Nothing
Set AttachME = Nothing
Set Session = Nothing
Set EmbedObj = Nothing
End Sub

Hi,

Could someone post a reply please?

Please write to me if my question is not clear.

I'm looking to resolve this issue at the earliest.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If you do a search for this in google you will get countless hits.

Here's one solution posted at Ozgrid:
email a range in Lotus Notes - Excel Help & Excel Macro Help

I can't test it for you because I don't have lotus notes.

Hope that helps...

Colin

Hi Collin,

Many thanks for your response.

I did tried the link you have given. I have modified some fields to suit my system, but the body of the mail is sent blank.

I will post a thread directly in ozgrid and try to sort this out.

Regards,
