RE: link with Outlook

Hi Sanjay,

Thank you for the forum question.

Yes you can, but you need to know how to trigger the event (execute the code when file is updated).

You will need to know Outlook VBA and how to reference the Outlook library from Excel.


Kind regards

Thanks Jens for your input

RE: link with Outlook

Hi Sanjay,

See basic Outlook VBA below.

It can only work if you activate the Outlook object library.


Sub sendemail()
Dim OutApp As Outlook.Application
Dim OutMail As Object

Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
With OutMail
.To = “xxx@xxx.co.uk”
.CC = ""
.BCC =””
.Subject = “New Update”
.Body = "Hello Guys” & VbNewLine” & “Please find attached update” & VbNewLine & “Kind Regards” & VbNewLine & “Jack Jones”

.Attachments.Add “C:\Users\Name\Desktop\Excel Files\MyAttachment.docx”
.Send
End With
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub



Kind regards
