..From = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("F27").Value

should work if the address is in the workbook containing the code on the
first sheet in range F27. What's the problem?

I found the code string below a while back and don't remember the author. My
apologies for the lack of acknowledgement. This code sends workbooks to users
through Outlook. It works fine, but I wanted to customize it slightly. In the
line of code that begins with ".From" I want to enter a cell reference in a
workbook rather than have the sender's name hard coded. I tried:

.From = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("F27").Value

and a couple of other variations, but can't get it to accept this cell
reference.

Anyone have the solution?
TIA.
