Can't Contenate
From Ron de Bruin's site:
http://www.rondebruin.nl/mail/folder2/files.htm I tried the following piece of code: With OutMail .To = cell.Value .Subject = "Weekly Forecasting" .Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & "Please view the _ attachment for this week's forecasting." The part after .Value gets truncated. Not sure why though. I tried to put quotes around the whole body, but Excel wouldn't allow that (text turned red). Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong? Thanks, Ryan--- -- RyGuy |

Hard to tell with the wrapping that is going on but probably this...
..Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & "Please view the " & _ "attachment for this week's forecasting." You have to close off the text string and add the & before adding the line connector. -- HTH...

.Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & "Please view the _ attachment for this week's forecasting." You cannot use a space and underscore to break a line of code in the middle of text enclosed in double quotes. If you want to use a line break, insert it in a section of the line that is not enclosed in double quotes. ..Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & _ "Please view the attachment for this week's forecasting." -- Regards, OssieMac "ryguy7272" wrote: From Ron de Bruin's site: http://www.rondebruin.nl/mail/folder2/files.htm I tried the following piece of code: With OutMail .To = cell.Value .Subject = "Weekly Forecasting" .Body = "Hi " & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & "Please view the _ attachment for this week's forecasting."
