Excel-VBA : Send a Excel Workbook as Attachment in Mail From MS Outlook Using Excel

In out earlier post we have seen, How to send a simple text mail using MS Excel. In this tutorial we will learn How to send the entire Excel Workbook as attachment along with the mail from Microsoft Outlook using Excel VBA.

Function to add attachment :

olMail.Attachments.Add "File Name"

NOTE: I have used the browse option to make it more real, you can avoid that by directly providing the complete file name as parameter.

Dim mainWB As Workbook
Sub sumit()
Dim SendID
Dim CCID
Dim Subject

Set otlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set olMail = otlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
Set Doc = olMail.GetInspector.WordEditor
Set mainWB = ActiveWorkbook

SendID = mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B1").Value
CCID = mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B2").Value
Subject = mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B3").Value
Body = mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B5").Value
AttachFile = mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B4").Value
With olMail
.To = SendID
If CCID <> "" Then
.CC = CCID
End If
.Subject = Subject
mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B5").Copy
Set WrdRng = Doc.Range
.Display
WrdRng.Paste
If InStr(1, AttachFile, "xls", vbTextCompare) Then
.Attachments.Add AttachFile

Sub browse()
Dim FSO As Object

strFileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename(Title:="Please choose a file to open", _
FileFilter:="Excel Files *.xls* (*.xls*),")
If strFileToOpen = False Then
MsgBox "No file selected.", vbExclamation, "Sorry!"
Exit Sub
Else
mainWB.Sheets("Mail").Range("B4").Value = strFileToOpen
