I have spent SEVERAL days looking for a code that works and have not
been able to get it.

I need a macro that copies a certain cell range (named) as a bitmap or
picture, pastes it into the body of my email and sends it.

The names and subject is stationary, so I dont need it to ask each
time I send.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a proven code?

(Have tried over 15 - 20 already - all unsuccessful).

The following is the CLOSEST, but the range doesnt appear.
The range i want to copy is (B2:L22)

Please Help.
