Automatically sending excel files through outlook

I would like to know how to make excel talk to outlook

I want to be able to send reports out to different area managers without needing to do it manually.

I have produced 12 reports all named differently and have recipient lists for each report but am not sure how to put the 2 together

Thanks
Aman

RE: Automatically sending excel files through outlook

The SendMail Method is very easy to use and will send any specified Excel Workbook as an attachment to specified recipients. As the code below specifies the Active Workbook the code is best stored in your Personal.xls
Sub SendActiveWorkbook()
ActiveWorkbook.SendMail _
Recipients:="Info@domain.net", _
Subject:="Thank you " & Format(Date, "dd/mmm/yy")
End Sub

try this first

VBA tip:

Stop Display Alerts In Excel

When creating or deleting a Worksheet in Excel you don't want Excel to inform you "A file already exists....." Or "Do you want to save this file...".

To stop these alerts happening use the following line of code:

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

After the Create or Delete routine use:

Application.DisplayAlerts = True
