My god, could it really be that simple....
So what is the logic behind why it works one way, and not the other.

Thanks again!

If your QUOTE sheet is not active you have this problem

Select the sheet first before you define them
Now you do after you define the strings


'Step 1 - Selects the quote sheet as the active sheet
Sheets("QUOTE").Select

'Prep 2 - Defins the varibles
CtNm = Range("O20").Text
CtEA = Range("O25").Text
PMNm = Range("I12").Text

Hello again,

Same quote module, same button, new issue.

Ron de Bruin has been helping me with this one, and doing a great
job
at it. So first let me say thank you to him for being so patient,
and
for explaining things clearly. Some of the code I will post is
Ron's,
and if you have come across this post by way of a search on
email.
Please see his site first; it may help to clear things up for
you.
(See
the bottom of this post for links to Ron's sites.) However,
patient
as
he has been, I can't expect him to continue to hold my hand on
this
one, so I am opening the question back up to the forum.

Now on to the meat of the matter...

Thanks to Ron this code has been cleaned up considerably, and a
lot
of
unnecessary steps have been eliminated. This gist of it is for
the
button to trigger the protection of one sheet (the quote itself),
copy
it, then via a yes/no msg box either send it as a single sheet
attachment, and save the file under a unique name, or just save
the
file.
I am stuck at the sending. For some reason the debugger when
stepping
through this, stops at the .Send, and tells me that the .To, .CC,
or
BCC must have a name in them. Well, initially I started with a
variable in the .To spot. However, I tested it with an actual
email
address between the quotes, and the same message appeared.

Please help! Ron, Dan, anyone...Thanks in advance!
