Creating outlook email with hyperlink through VBA - vba

I have a macro which the idea is to create an Outlook email from a textbox that I have in excel.
The problem is when I write a word and put a hyperlink on it, when the email is displayed, the hyperlink is not there.
Sub Envio()
Dim endereco, arquivo, destino, assunto, mensagem, nome, copia, anexo As String
Dim row, report As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim OutApp As Outlook.Application
Dim outMail As Outlook.MailItem
anexo = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Mensagem").Cells(39, 2).Value
assunto = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Mensagem").Cells(5, 2).Value
mensagem = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Mensagem").[TextBox].Text & vbCrLf
copyblind = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Mensagem").Cells(8, 2).Value
i = 2
destino = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Emails").Cells(i, 1).Value
Do Until destino = ""
nome = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Emails").Cells(i, 2).Value
copia = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Emails").Cells(i, 3).Value
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set outMail = OutApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With outMail
.To = destino
If copia <> "" Then
.CC = copia
Else
.CC = ""
End If
.BCC = copyblind
.Subject = nome & ", " & assunto
.Body = mensagem
If anexo <> "" Then
.Attachments.Add (anexo)
End If
.BodyFormat = olFormatHTML
.HTMLBody = "<BODY style=font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri>" & mensagem & "<BR><BR>" & _
"</BODY>"
.Display
End With
i = i + 1
destino = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Emails").Cells(i, 1).Value
Set outMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
Loop
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
Can someone help me?

Try putting HTML tags for a link in the body of your email like so:

Sending letter from a specific mailbox [duplicate]

I currently use a code that generates an email fine with certain fields like To, CC, BCC, but I am not sure how to switch the "FROM" part of the email automatically.
Ie my email is here, but I want to automatically switch to another inbox,
I can do it manually when the email is generated via the drop down, but I am wondering if there are ways to do this automatically. I Tried adding .From to this existing code but does not work.
Here are the relevant snippets of code:
Dim OLook As Object, Mitem As Object, OlAttachment As Object
Dim fso As Object
Dim remail As Range
Dim acc As Object
Set Mitem = OLook.CreateItem(0)
With Mitem
'send to:
.To = send_list
'send from:
'.From = from_list
'cc to:
.CC = cc_list
'bcc to:
.BCC = bcc_list
.From = from_list is not a supported property.
Does anyone know how to alter this code to add the "From" parameter correctly?

You can then replace the .From line with:
.SendUsingAccount = GetAccountOf("emailaddress#somewhere.com", OLook)
Edit: Follow-up to comments below:
If the above doesn't work then I suspect there's something with your outlook that is causing this. You need to think of ways/questions to help determine the problem, such as
Is the account you want to use completely set-up within outlook?
When you send email manually from this account does outlook ask you for password?
Try also to think of test code you can use to narrow down the possibilities that may be the cause of the problem. for example try to run these subroutines and see if the first code actually lists your desired account. Does the second code result in the account being Nothing? If so, perhaps an option is to delete the account and add it again to outlook, which may help reset something that was causing the problem.
Sub ShowAllAccounts()
Dim OLook As Object
Dim oAccount As Object
Set OLook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
For Each oAccount In OLook.Session.Accounts
MsgBox oAccount.DisplayName
Next oAccount
End Sub
Sub DoesAccountExist()
Dim OLook As Object
Set OLook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
If GetAccountOf("emailaddress#somewhere.com", OLook) Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Account doesn't exist"
End If
End Sub
Try to make up some other code similar to this and please get back if you are still stuck.
Edit 2:
You need to make sure you set the SendUsingAccount property before you .Display your email: Outlook if funny like that :)
Try this:
Dim OLook As Object, Mitem As Object, OlAttachment As Object
Dim fso As Object
Dim remail As Range
Dim acc As Object
Set Mitem = OLook.CreateItem(0)
With Mitem
.SendUsingAccount = GetAccountOf("emailaddress#somewhere.com", OLook)
.Display
'send to:
.To = send_list
'send from:
'.From = from_list
'cc to:
.CC = cc_list
'bcc to:
.BCC = bcc_list
Try the next approach, please:
Sub SendUsingDifferentAccount()
Dim OLook As New Outlook.Application
Dim acc As Outlook.account
Dim Mitem As Outlook.MailItem
Set Mitem = OLook.CreateItem(0)
For Each acc In OLook.Session.accounts
If acc.DisplayName = "testaccount#yourdomain.com" Then
With Mitem
.To = "..."
.cc = "..."
.BCC = "..."
Set .SendUsingAccount = acc
.send
End With
Exit For
End If
Next
End Sub
If needs a reference to 'Microsoft Outlook ... Object Library. Or declare all above object variables As Object`. But it is better to reference Outlook. You can benefit of the intellisense advantage...
You can use the .SendUsingAccount property
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/outlook.mailitem.sendusingaccount
I use the following approach to send mails from a specific Outlook account (IMAP, no Exchange Server). The code relies on an already opened outlook instance (but that can easily be changed)
Option Explicit
Public Enum oCreateMail
oSave = 1
oDisplay = 2
oSend = 4
End Enum
Public Sub RunSendMail()
Dim OutlookApp As Outlook.Application
On Error Resume Next
Set OutlookApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
If OutlookApp Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Please open Outlook first.", vbExclamation, "Open Outlook"
Exit Sub
End If
'load a template for your mail if necessary
Dim TemplateFile As String
TemplateFile = ThisWorkbook.Path & Application.PathSeparator & "template_message.msg"
'Name of Outlook account that should be used
Dim AccountName As String

Dim OutlookAccount As Outlook.Account
Set OutlookAccount = GetAccountByName(OutlookApp, AccountName)
If OutlookAccount Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Outlook account '" & AccountName & "' was not found!", vbCritical, "Outlook Account"
Exit Sub
End If
'send a mail from a specific account
SendMail OutlookApp, OutlookAccount, "send_to#acme.com", oDisplay, "" 'use TemplateFile as template if you don't want to create the mail from scratch.
End Sub
Public Sub SendMail(ByVal OutlookApp As Outlook.Application, ByVal OutlookAccount As Outlook.Account, ByVal MailTo As String, Optional ByVal MailAction As oCreateMail = 2, Optional ByVal TemplateFile As String)
Dim NewMail As Outlook.MailItem
If TemplateFile <> vbNullString Then
Set NewMail = OutlookApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(TemplateFile)
Else
Set NewMail = OutlookApp.Createitem(0)
End If
With NewMail
.SendUsingAccount = OutlookAccount
'remove a automatically added signature if necessary
'RemoveAutoSignature NewMail
'new email from scratch
.HTMLBody = "test mail"
'alternatively replace something in the template:
'.HTMLBody = Replace$(.HTMLBody, "Placeholder", "Fill in TEXT")
.To = MailTo
Select Case MailAction
Case oDisplay
.Display
Case oSend
.Send
Case oSave
.Save
.Close olSave
End Select
End With
End Sub
Public Sub RemoveAutoSignature(ByRef Mail As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim oDocument As Word.Document
Set oDocument = Mail.GetInspector.WordEditor
Dim oBookmark As Word.Bookmark
Set oBookmark = oDocument.Bookmarks.Item("_MailAutoSig")
If Not oBookmark Is Nothing Then
oBookmark.Select

The following can be used to list all available Outlook mail accounts:

Debug.Print oAccount.DisplayName
Next oAccount
End Sub

Try to make up some other code similar to this and please get back if you are still stuck.
Edit 2:
You need to make sure you set the SendUsingAccount property before you .Display your email: Outlook if funny like that :)
Try this:
Dim OLook As Object, Mitem As Object, OlAttachment As Object
Dim fso As Object
Dim remail As Range
Dim acc As Object
Set Mitem = OLook.CreateItem(0)
With Mitem
.SendUsingAccount = GetAccountOf("emailaddress#somewhere.com", OLook)
.Display
'send to:
.To = send_list
'send from:
'.From = from_list
'cc to:
.CC = cc_list
'bcc to:
.BCC = bcc_list
Try the next approach, please:
Sub SendUsingDifferentAccount()
Dim OLook As New Outlook.Application
Dim acc As Outlook.account
Dim Mitem As Outlook.MailItem
Set Mitem = OLook.CreateItem(0)
For Each acc In OLook.Session.accounts
If acc.DisplayName = "testaccount#yourdomain.com" Then
With Mitem
.To = "..."
.cc = "..."
.BCC = "..."
Set .SendUsingAccount = acc
.send
End With
Exit For
End If
Next
End Sub
If needs a reference to 'Microsoft Outlook ... Object Library. Or declare all above object variables As Object`. But it is better to reference Outlook. You can benefit of the intellisense advantage...
You can use the .SendUsingAccount property
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/outlook.mailitem.sendusingaccount
I use the following approach to send mails from a specific Outlook account (IMAP, no Exchange Server). The code relies on an already opened outlook instance (but that can easily be changed)
Option Explicit
Public Enum oCreateMail
oSave = 1
oDisplay = 2
oSend = 4
End Enum
Public Sub RunSendMail()
Dim OutlookApp As Outlook.Application
On Error Resume Next
Set OutlookApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
If OutlookApp Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Please open Outlook first.", vbExclamation, "Open Outlook"
Exit Sub
End If
'load a template for your mail if necessary
Dim TemplateFile As String
TemplateFile = ThisWorkbook.Path & Application.PathSeparator & "template_message.msg"
'Name of Outlook account that should be used
Dim AccountName As String
AccountName = "account_1#acme.com"
Dim OutlookAccount As Outlook.Account
Set OutlookAccount = GetAccountByName(OutlookApp, AccountName)
If OutlookAccount Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Outlook account '" & AccountName & "' was not found!", vbCritical, "Outlook Account"
Exit Sub
End If
'send a mail from a specific account
SendMail OutlookApp, OutlookAccount, "send_to#acme.com", oDisplay, "" 'use TemplateFile as template if you don't want to create the mail from scratch.
End Sub
Public Sub SendMail(ByVal OutlookApp As Outlook.Application, ByVal OutlookAccount As Outlook.Account, ByVal MailTo As String, Optional ByVal MailAction As oCreateMail = 2, Optional ByVal TemplateFile As String)
Dim NewMail As Outlook.MailItem
If TemplateFile <> vbNullString Then
Set NewMail = OutlookApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(TemplateFile)
Else
Set NewMail = OutlookApp.Createitem(0)
End If
With NewMail
.SendUsingAccount = OutlookAccount
'remove a automatically added signature if necessary
'RemoveAutoSignature NewMail
'new email from scratch
.HTMLBody = "test mail"
'alternatively replace something in the template:
'.HTMLBody = Replace$(.HTMLBody, "Placeholder", "Fill in TEXT")
.To = MailTo
Select Case MailAction
Case oDisplay
.Display
Case oSend
.Send
Case oSave
.Save
.Close olSave
End Select
End With
End Sub
Public Sub RemoveAutoSignature(ByRef Mail As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim oDocument As Word.Document
Set oDocument = Mail.GetInspector.WordEditor
Dim oBookmark As Word.Bookmark
Set oBookmark = oDocument.Bookmarks.Item("_MailAutoSig")
If Not oBookmark Is Nothing Then
oBookmark.Select
oDocument.Windows.Item(1).Selection.Delete
End If
End Sub
Public Function GetAccountByName(ByVal oApp As Outlook.Application, ByVal AccountName As String) As Outlook.Account
Dim oAccount As Outlook.Account
For Each oAccount In oApp.Session.Accounts

Exit For
End If
Next oAccount
End Function
The following can be used to list all available Outlook mail accounts:
Public Sub GetAllOutlookAccounts(ByVal oApp As Outlook.Application)
Dim oAccount As Outlook.Account
For Each oAccount In oApp.Session.Accounts
Debug.Print oAccount.DisplayName
Next oAccount
End Sub
Public Sub ListAllOutlookAccounts()
GetAllOutlookAccounts GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
End Sub

vba outlook adding newline between content and signature

Hi trying to add a newline between my body content after paste a table and signature,codes are below:
dim FileName As String
Dim filepath As String
Dim rng As Range
Dim OutlookApp As Object
Dim Outlookmail As Object
Dim lastrowo As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set Outlookmail = OutlookApp.CreateItem(0)
lastrowo = Worksheets("Price And Accrued Info").Range("K550").End(xlUp).row
Set rng = Worksheets("Price And Accrued Info").Range("K2:y" & lastrowo)
rng.Copy
Dim vInspector As Object
Set vInspector = Outlookmail.GetInspector
Dim wEditor As Object

' .attachments.Add drWorkbook.FullName
' .attachments.Add crWorkbook.FullName
'
End With
Set Outlookmail = Nothing
Set OutlookApp = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Try this:

wEditor.Paragraphs(1).Range.Text = "Hi The following trades are unconfirmed trades." _
& String(5, vbNewLine)
wEditor.Paragraphs(5).Range.Text = "This is is the last line." _

failes to send mail after first in loop

Got a macro running through columns with mail addresses using most parts from Ron de Bruin.
The macro runs through just fine, but only sends the first hit in column B and doesn't display any of the other hits when i try to watch it? What could be the issue?
The code is so that I can get the default signature from outlook, thats why it's .Display first in the code.
Sub mail_HTML()
'For Tips see: http://www.rondebruin.nl/win/winmail/Outlook/tips.htm
'Working in Office 2000-2016
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim cell As Range
Dim strbody As String
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
On Error GoTo cleanup
For Each cell In Columns("B").Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If cell.Value Like "?*#?*.?*" And _
LCase(Cells(cell.Row, "C").Value) = "yes" Then
strbody = "<H3>Hei " & Cells(cell.Row, "E").Value & "</H3>" _
& "<p>" & Range("k4") & "<p>"
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.Display
.To = cell.Value
.Subject = Range("K12").Value
.HTMLBody = strbody & .HTMLBody
'You can add files also like this
'.Attachments.Add Range("O1").Value
.Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
Set OutMail = Nothing
End If
Next cell
cleanup:
Set OutApp = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
When you set
Set OutMail = Nothing
You dont have any access to the object anymore (because it is destroyed). But you set it before the loop. You need to set it in every loop then like this:
On Error Resume Next
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
With OutMail
.Display
.To = cell.Value
.Subject = Range("K12").Value
.HTMLBody = strbody & .HTMLBody
'You can add files also like this
'.Attachments.Add Range("O1").Value
.Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
Set OutMail = Nothing
So after 1 Email the oject is destroyed, but you are not aware because of the on error resume next
Tried that but it is not working for me, here is my code:
Do Until in_file.EOF
Email_To = in_file!email_address
Email_Bcc = ""
Email_Body = in_file!email_salut & " " & in_file!email_name & ", test this."
Email_Subject = "Email Subject"
Set mail_object = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set mail_single = mail_object.CreateItem(0)
With mail_single
.Subject = Email_Subject
.To = Email_To
.cc = Email_Cc
.BCC = Email_Bcc
.Body = Email_Body
.send
End With
Set mail_object = Nothing
Set mail_single = Nothing
in_file.MoveNext
Loop

Multi-line email body when sending emails from excel

I am trying to automate sending emails with multiple lines and paragraphs through excel using VBA. Here is the code I have so far:
Sub Send_Email()
Dim Email_Subject, Email_Send_From, Email_Send_To, _
Email_Cc, Email_Bcc, Email_Body As String
Dim Mail_Object, Mail_Single As Variant
Email_Subject = "test"
Email_Send_From = "email"
Email_Cc = ""
Email_Bcc = ""
Dim r As Range, cell As Range, mynumber As Long
Dim i As Long
Set r = Range("K2:K300")
i = 2
For Each cell In r
If Cells(i, "K").Value = "" Then
Else
Email_Send_To = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i,"K").Value
Email_Body = "test from outlook excel"
Set Mail_Object = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set Mail_Single = Mail_Object.CreateItem(0)
With Mail_Single
.Subject = Email_Subject
.To = Email_Send_To
.cc = Email_Cc
.BCC = Email_Bcc
.Body = Email_Body
.send
End With
End If
i = i + 1
Next
On Error GoTo debugs
debugs:
If Err.Description <> "" Then MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
However I'm not sure how to make the body of the email include line breaks and split up paragraphs rather than just having one block of text.
Use VBNewLine for a new line character.
Dim A As String: A = "Line A"
Dim B As String: B = "Line B"
Debug.print(A & VbNewLine & B)
Output:
Line A
Line B
