How to send email to list of individuals

[jason]

I have the below code to generate an email, I would like to add a To: block
and take the list of receipiants from an excel spreadsheet that updates
daily. How can this be done.

Sub Macro1()



Dim olApp As Outlook.Application

Dim olMsg As Outlook.MailItem



Set olApp = Outlook.Application

Set olMsg = olApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)



With olMsg



.Subject = "Hello world"

.Display

.Body = "Hello, here is my email!" & .Body

End With



Set olMsg = Nothing

Set olApp = Nothing

End Sub

Assuming, Excel is already running, and the first address is in cell "a1":

Dim Xl As Excel.Application
Dim Ws As Excel.Worksheet
Dim Rn As Excel.Range

Set Xl = GetObject(, "Excel.Application")
Set Ws = Xl.Workbooks("Mappe1.xls").Worksheets(1)

Set Rn = Ws.Range("a1")

Now you can read Rn.Value for the first address, then loop through the rows
with the Offset function until the Value="".

I am really a novice at this, where do I place this code and how do I make it
loop?

The loop could look like this:

While Rn.Value<>""
.Recipients.Add Rn.Value
Set Rn=Rn.Offset(1,0)
Wend

Add the code to the With olMsg block.

.Attachments.Add "xxx"


End With
End Sub

If you get the error for one of the Excel objects, you need to add a
reference to the Microsoft Excel x Object Library via Tools/References.

Thanks for all the help it works great. One last question, how can I put the
reciepents in the BCC box instead of the TO box with this code

Dim Recip as Outlook Recipient

Set Recip=.Recipients.Add(...)
Recip.Type=olBCC
