Sorry, I posted this yesterday but didn't get a response. I was hoping to try
again today.

I’m having a problem trying to figure out why one email function works but
another one doesn’t. Both codes work on my home computer using Outlook, but
when I try to run them at work(we use Lotus Notes) the Sub
Mail_Text_in_Body_3() code does not create the message. It seems like it is
calling up Lotus Notes but the email message doesn’t get created. I have
changed the mail server to Lotus Notes in Internet Explorer.
The code Mail_ActiveSheet() works fine


Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "Shell32.dll" _
Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, _
ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As
String, _
ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
_____________________________________________________________________
Sub Mail_Text_in_Body_3()
'Creates statement for a person and emails it to data entry
Dim msg As String, URL As String
Dim Recipient As String, Subj As String
Dim cell As Range
Recipient = "data"

Subj = "Statement for " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("Q1").Value & "
for Incident " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("N7").Value

msg = "Statement of " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("Q1").Value & " of
My Work" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine
For Each cell In Sheets("Employee List").Range("N3")
msg = msg & vbNewLine & cell
Next cell
msg = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(msg, vbNewLine, "%0D%0A")

msg = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(msg, vbLf, "%0D%0A")
URL = "mailto:" & Recipient & "&subject=" & Subj & "&body=" & msg
ShellExecute 0&, vbNullString, URL, vbNullString, vbNullString,
vbNormalFocus
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:08"))
Application.SendKeys "%s"
End Sub




Sub Mail_ActiveSheet()
Dim strdate As String
Dim FName1, FName2, Fullname
FName1 = Range("AU2").Value & "-"
FName2 = Range("J4").Value
Fullname = FName1 & FName2
ActiveSheet.Copy
strdate = Format(Date, "dd-mm-yy") & " " & Format(Time, "h-mm-ss")
ActiveSheet.SaveAs "Sheet1 " & Fullname _
& " " & strdate & ".xls"
ActiveWorkbook.SendMail "data", _
Fullname
ActiveWorkbook.ChangeFileAccess xlReadOnly
Kill ActiveWorkbook.Fullname
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub

I think I tracked down the problem, too many characters. If I change "N8" to
a cell with less characters in it, it will work.
Any work around?

Thanks

Dim msg As String, cell As Range

Recipientbcc = ""

Subj = "Statement for " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("P2").Value & "

msg = "Dear customer" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine
For Each cell In Sheets("Employee List").Range("N8")

Next cell

I think I tracked down the problem, too many characters. If I change "N8" to
a cell with less characters in it, it will work.
Any work around?

Thanks


Sub Mail_Text_in_Body()

Dim msg As String, cell As Range
Dim Recipient As String, Subj As String, HLink As String
Dim Recipientcc As String, Recipientbcc As String
Recipient = "(e-mail address removed)"
Recipientcc = ""
Recipientbcc = ""

Subj = "Statement for " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("P2").Value & "
for Incident " & Sheets("Employee List").Range("P3").Value

msg = "Dear customer" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine
For Each cell In Sheets("Employee List").Range("N8")
msg = msg & vbNewLine & cell
Next cell
msg = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(msg, vbNewLine, "%0D%0A")

msg = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(msg, vbLf, "%0D%0A")
HLink = "mailto:" & Recipient & "?" & "cc=" & Recipientcc & "&" & "bcc="
& Recipientbcc & "&"
HLink = HLink & "subject=" & Subj & "&"
HLink = HLink & "body=" & msg

ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink (HLink)
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:05"))
Application.SendKeys "%s"
End Sub
