Hyperlink to fire macro in personal.xlsb - vba

I am having a column in an excel with some text(date, sender,subject) which refer to an email. The problem is that(as far as I know) you can hyperlink to an outlook email in public folders, because the email might move(link varies from pc to pc).
So my idea to obtain that email is to make a hyper link that fires of a macro in the personal.xlsb, that then search for that email and display it.
My only problem is that I can not figure out how to link text to start a macro, Worksheet_FollowHyperlink means that I need to put that code in the sheet where my text is.
I guess I could do that, but this implements that I need to create this code when the workbook is opened and remove it when the workbook is closed, unless I have to rename all the files xlsx to xlsm, and because I am unsure if other colleagues have link to the excel sheet I would like to avoid doing so.
So my question is, is there any way to make a hyperlink to personal.xlsb!ShowEmail(cellValue) ? Or is it possible to make direct link to the email in the public folder? Below is the code for creating the email text:

How to filter e-mails from a specific domain and number of receivers?

I would like to use DASL filter to:
Exclude a recipient's specific domain (e.g., #test.com)
Limit the result to one-to-one e-mail (only one recipient).
For the first point I thought about this query:
"urn:schemas:httpmail:displayto" LIKE '%#%'AND NOT "urn:schemas:httpmail:displayto" LIKE '%#test.com'
But it's not working,I still have e-mails with #test.com in the receiver list of several e-mails.
For the second point I have no idea how to limit to one recipient.
Thanks in advance.
Use the following opertor <> which means not equal in the search string:
"urn:schemas:httpmail:displayto" LIKE '%#%' AND "urn:schemas:httpmail:displayto" <> '%#test.com'
Two separate filters are easier to figure out.
Private Sub FindMail_RestrictDomainTest()
Dim olFolder As Folder
Dim strFilter As String
Dim foundItems As Items
Dim i As Long
Set olFolder = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)

Using INSERT INTO with VALUES fails with Run-time error '3078'

I've been to dozens of sites. None address my particular question. All (including official Microsoft) tell me to do what I'm doing.
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = """INSERT INTO tblVolunteers " & vbCrLf & _
"VALUES (" & [txtTitle] & "," & [txtFirstName] & "," & [txtMiddle] & "," & [txtLastName] & "," & [txtEmail] & _
"," & [txtPhone] & "," & [txtChurch] & "," & [txtGroup] & "," & [txtCouncil] & "," & [chkParCo] & "," & _
[txtMailAdd] & ");"""
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
Here's what Microsoft has to say:
Run-time error '3078'
The Microsoft Access database engine cannot find the input table or query ""INSERT INTO tblVolunteers
VALUES (Mr.,John,L.,Smith,jlsmith#email.com,800-555-1212,St. Smith's,Smith,1234,-1,10 Smith St.
Smithville, TX 77777-3333);"". Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
Why is it looking for a table or query when not only have I specified VALUES but it has picked up all the values from the form?
You could either use my function CSql and concatenate the values like this:
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblVolunteers " & _
"VALUES (" & CSql([txtTitle]) & "," & CSql([txtFirstName]) & "," & CSql([txtMiddle]) & "," & _
CSql([txtLastName]) & "," & CSql([txtEmail]) & "," & CSql([txtPhone]) & "," & CSql([txtChurch] & "," & _
CSql([txtGroup]) & "," & CSql([txtCouncil]) & "," & CSql([chkParCo]) & "," & CSql([txtMailAdd]) & ");"
or you could skip this mess and use DAO for much cleaner coding and easier debugging:
Dim Records As DAO.Recordset
Dim Sql As String
Sql = "Select * From tblVolunteers"
Set Records = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Sql, dbOpenDynaset, dbAppendOnly)
Records.AddNew
Records!Title.Value = Me!txtTitle.Value
Records!FirstName.Value = Me!txtFirstName.Value
Records!Middle.Value = Me!txtMiddle.Value
Records!LastName.Value = Me!txtLastName.Value
Records!Email.Value = Me!txtEmail.Value
Records!Phone.Value = Me!txtPhone.Value
Records!Church.Value = Me!txtChurch.Value
Records!Group.Value = Me!txtGroup.Value
Records!Council.Value = Me!txtCouncil.Value
Records!ParCo.Value = Me!chkParCo.Value
Records!MailAdd.Value = Me!txtMailAdd.Value
Records.Update
Records.Close
Basically you need double quotes qaround the text, so for that you can use CHR(34)
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblVolunteers " & vbCrLf & _
"VALUES (" & CHR(34) & [txtTitle] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtFirstName] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtMiddle] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtLastName] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtEmail] & CHR(34) & _
"," & CHR(34) & [txtPhone] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtChurch] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtGroup] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [txtCouncil] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & [chkParCo] & CHR(34) & "," & CHR(34) & _
[txtMailAdd] & CHR(34) & ");"
use Access Query Design View..... start with just a single field, and then build field by field...

How to change font color for updated Access data in Outlook mail

In Access 2010 I have tables, e.g. Employee(Pracownicy). I can update the data in the table using the subform and the update button.
Updating the data in the subform automatically generates an Outlook mail containing the data in the updated record.
I need to change font color for updated data in the mail body.
The code to update the data and generate e-mail:
Private Sub cmdUpdate2_Click()
CurrentDb.Execute "update Pracownicy" & _
" SET Identyfikator='" & Me.txtID & "'" & _
", Imie='" & Me.txtImie & "'" & _
", Nazwisko ='" & Me.txtNazwisko & "'" & _
", Wiek ='" & Me.txtWiek & "'" & _
", Data_urodzenia ='" & Me.txtData & "'" & _
", Miejsce_urodzenia ='" & Me.txtMiejsce & "'" & _
", Miejscowosc ='" & Me.txtMiejscowosc & "'" & _
", Plec ='" & Me.txtPlec & "'" & _
" where Identyfikator='" & Me.txtID & "'"

Set MojMail = Nothing
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox ("Atention")
End If

I think this becomes more of an HTML question rather than VBA. Try adding a FONT tag to the following line and see if that works for you.
"<br><br><B><font color="red">Identyfikator:</font></B> " & Me.txtID & " " & _

How to add an incremental count (version) to a string (file) in Excel/VBA?

I have tried a lot of different things, and it seems like I cannot get it to work. So basically, this is a small piece of my complete code.
I am using Microsoft Scripting Runtime to save the file, using the FileExists() to check if the file actually exist before saving.
This is working fine if I remove the IF-statement/Loop.
However, now it feels like FileExists won´t find the string, MyFilePath, when I run it with the IF/Loop. (getdirsubparentpath is a function)
Dim week, UserName As String
Dim MyFile, MyFilePath As String
Dim version As Integer
' Current week, XX
week = Format(Date, "ww")
' Username, e.g. niclas.madsen
UserName = Environ$("UserName")
' Initials, first letter of last and surname to caps
' e.g. niclas.madsen would be NM
UserName = UCase(Left(UserName, 1) & Mid(UserName, InStr(UserName, ".") + 1, 1))
' fix filename for saving purpose
MyFile = Replace(Replace("SupplierOrganization_W", "", ""), ".", "_") _
& "" _
& week _
& " " _
& UserName _
& ".csv"
'SupplierOrganization_WXX NM
MyFilePath = getDirSubParentPath & MyFile
' Look for the MyFilePath, if it exists then
' Add "-1" after the week number, if 1 exists, add 2, etc.
If Len(Dir(MyFilePath)) <> 0 Then
version = 0
Do
version = version + 1
MyFilePath = Dir(getDirSubParentPath & "SupplierOrganization_W" & week & "-" & version & " " & UserName & ".csv")
Loop Until Len(Dir(MyFilePath)) < 0
End If
Dim tmpFile, tmpFilePath As String
tmpFile = getDirSubParentPath & "tmp_file.txt"
Dim tmpString As String
'Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
Dim fso As Object 'scripting.filesystemobject
Set fso = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject")
If fso.FileExists(MyFilePath) = True Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Open MyFilePath For Input As #1
Open tmpFile For Output As #2
tmpString = Input(LOF(1), 1) 'read the entire file
tmpString = Replace(tmpString, (Chr(44) & Chr(34) & Chr(34) & Chr(44) & Chr(34) _
& Chr(34) & Chr(44) & Chr(34) & Chr(34) & Chr(44) & Chr(34) & Chr(34) & Chr(44) _

getDirSubParentPath = ThisWorkbook.Path & Application.PathSeparator & "CSV" & Application.PathSeparator & "Parent" & Application.PathSeparator
End Function
I finally manage to create a solution that seems viable. However, the code could use some cleaning up :) But it gets the job done.
So basically, I am having some issues with the loop. It will return a file named W16-0 (which should actual just be W16). It should only add the "-X" if W16 is found. So the incremental order should be W16, W16-1, W16-2, etc.
What I am doing is that I try to locate if there is a W16-0 and then replace it with W16. Furthermore, it seems like the loop will give me one higher than the amount of files I have. So that is where I also got an error. So if I had a W16-4, it would ask the macro to find and open a file named W16-5, which would obviously not exist.
If somebody could help me clean up the code, I would be really thankful!

Using variables in fieldnames - SQL Update statement

I am new to using Access 2010. I wish to execute the following sql update statement, but I have problems with the syntax. The table is called "Forecasts", and users will edit & update the qty forecasted.
Problem - The table fieldnames are 2014_1, 2014_2, 2014_3 ... to represent the different months, stored in an array. I have done abit of research and I believe the way to dynamically do this is:
Dim sqlString As String
sqlString = "UPDATE Forecasts " & _
" SET Branch_Plant=" & Me.txtBranch_Plant & _
", Item_Number_Short='" & Me.txtItem_Number_Short & "'" & _
", Description='" & Me.txtDescription & "'" & _
", UOM='" & Me.txtUOM & "'" & _
", Estimated_Cost=" & Me.txtEstimated_Cost & _
", Requesting_Business_Unit='" & Me.txtRequesting_Business_Unit & "'" & _
", End_Customer='" & Me.txtEnd_Customer & "'" & _
", Project='" & Me.txtProject & "'" & _
", Forecasts." & "[" & arrMonthToDisplay(0) & "]" = " & Me.txtProjectedJanVolume " & _
" WHERE ID =" & Me.txtID.Tag
MsgBox ("This is the output: " & sqlString)
CurrentDb.Execute sqlString
It was working fine until this line was added
Forecasts." & "[" & arrMonthToDisplay(0) & "]" = " & Me.txtProjectedJanVolume
The msgbx output now shows: "False". Whats wrong with sqlString?
Please help! Thank you very much.
", Forecasts.[" & arrMonthToDisplay(0) & "] = " & Me.txtProjectedJanVolume & _
" WHERE ID =" & Me.txtID.Tag
You compare string to string.
Change
", Forecasts." & "[" & arrMonthToDisplay(0) & "]" = " & Me.txtProjectedJanVolume " &
to
", Forecasts." & "[" & arrMonthToDisplay(0) & "] = " & " Me.txtProjectedJanVolume " &
