Create a reference to the Outlook object model in tools- references in the
VBE or use late binding.

I have set up an excel book that when a button is pressed it auto emails the
saved book via Lotus Notes. I now need to do the same but via Outlook. I have
used the code associated with SendWithOutlook but I get an error message
straight off, on the line Dim objOL As New Outlook.Application. The error is
"Compile error: User-defined type not defined".

any ideas?

Sub SendWithOutlook()

Dim objOL As New Outlook.Application
Dim objMail As MailItem
Set objOL = New Outlook.Application
Set objMail = objOL.CreateItem(olMailItem)
