Excel VBA - Outlook (Resizing Body)
Hi,
I have used the code for copying the body of a workbook into an email in Outlook from this webpage: https://www.rondebruin.nl/win/s1/outlook/bmail2.htm
I'm now having an issue because the cells I am copying are quite large in the body of the email. If possible, I'd really like to be able to scale the view of the cells to be around 80%. Is this something I can add into my code?
This is the code I'm using:
Sub Mail_Selection_Range_Outlook_Body2()
Dim rng As Range
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim StrBody As String
Dim StrBody2 As String
Set rng = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
'Only the visible cells in the selection
'Set rng = Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
'You can also use a fixed range if you want
Set rng = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:AA51").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
On Error GoTo 0
If rng Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "The selection is not a range or the sheet is protected" & _
vbNewLine & "please correct and try again.", vbOKOnly
Exit Sub
End If
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
StrBody = "<font size=""3.5"" face=""Arial Narrow"">" & "Hi all," & "<br>" & "<br>" & "Please find attached..." & "<br>"
StrBody2 = "<br>" & "If you have any questions, please let me know" & "<br>" & "<br>" & "Kind regards," & "<br>" & "x"
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.To = "testemail"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "Subject Line"
.HTMLBody = StrBody & RangetoHTML(rng) & StrBody2
.Attachments.Add ActiveWorkbook.FullName
.Display 'or use .Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
With Application
.EnableEvents = True
.ScreenUpdating = True
End With
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub
Function RangetoHTML(rng As Range)
Dim fso As Object
Dim ts As Object
Dim TempFile As String
Dim TempWB As Workbook
TempFile = Environ$("temp") & "\" & Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm-ss") & ".htm"
'Copy the range and create a new workbook to past the data in
rng.Copy
Set TempWB = Workbooks.Add(1)
With TempWB.Sheets(1)
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial Paste:=8
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, , False, False
.Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats, , False, False
.Cells(1).Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
On Error Resume Next
.DrawingObjects.Visible = True
.DrawingObjects.Delete
On Error GoTo 0
End With
'Publish the sheet to a htm file
With TempWB.PublishObjects.Add( _
SourceType:=xlSourceRange, _
Filename:=TempFile, _
Sheet:=TempWB.Sheets(1).Name, _
Source:=TempWB.Sheets(1).UsedRange.Address, _
HtmlType:=xlHtmlStatic)
.Publish (True)
End With
'Read all data from the htm file into RangetoHTML
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set ts = fso.GetFile(TempFile).OpenAsTextStream(1, -2)
RangetoHTML = ts.readall
ts.Close
RangetoHTML = Replace(RangetoHTML, "align=center x:publishsource=", _
"align=left x:publishsource=")
'Close TempWB
TempWB.Close savechanges:=False
'Delete the htm file we used in this function
Kill TempFile
Set ts = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
Set TempWB = Nothing
End Function
RE: Excel VBA - Outlook (Resizing Body)
Hi Rebecca,
Thank you for the forum question.
You will have the write HTML code and change the font size.
I found a couple of links.
