Default Automatic emailing Excel content via Outlook (for Student grading)

Dear all:

I'm a college teacher and have been using Excel to post students' various
quiz/exam grades on the web. However, starting from this semester, we were
asked to respect students' privacy of NOT sending/posting the grades of the
entire class anymore.

Since I usually have several hundreds of students' grades to take care of
each semester, it really becomes a burden if I had to look up each student's
class taken/grade/email address and send out individual email notices.
Therefore, I'm wondering if there's any solution in Excel's macro or
programming capability to automatically send each individual student's grade
to him/her once I have their grades calculated in Excel?

What I have in mind is that I'll have the following info in an Excel file:

Cloumn A: Student's name
Column B: Student's ID
Column C: Student's email address
Column D: Name of the course
Column E: Name of the test (e.g. quiz #1, midterm exam, final exam, ...etc.)
Column F: grade or score
Column G: percentile for the preceding grade in the class
Column H: course coordinator's email address

After I'm done with the grading process, I wish to use my email app (MS
Outlook 2007) to automatically send each student with their perspective grade
info in the following format:

Dear [Column A]:
For the test Column E] of the course [Column D] you've registered, your
grade is [column F] with a [Column G]% among your classmates. If you have any
question on your grade, please contact the course coordinator at [Column H],
thanks.


Since I'm only an average Excel user w/o any knowledge on how to compose any
codes/macros, I wonder if this request is do-able withing Excel itself? I'll
highly appreciate if I could get any help/suggestion from you. Many thanks in
advance!

Best,
