Active X Issue

[heffo500]

Hi

I have this macro below which works perfectly takes a section of a sheet coverts to HTML and pastes it into an email.

However when I imported it into an old spreadsheet with other macros I keep getting "ActiveX component can't create object" error.

This is the macro

Sub Mail_Selection_Range_Outlook_Body()
Dim rng As Range
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim MonthEndDate As String
Dim StrBody As String, BottomBody As String, TOADDRESSES As String, CCADDRESSES As String
MonthEndDate = Worksheets("Output").Cells(1, 7)
TOADDRESSES = Worksheets("Output").Cells(36, 16)
CCADDRESSES = Worksheets("Output").Cells(36, 17)
StrBody = "****** style=font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri>Dear All," & "

" & "Please see the below  data for month-end date: " & MonthEndDate & "." & "

"
BottomBody = "

" & "****** style=font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri>Thanks," & "

" & "Team"

Set rng = Nothing
' Only send the visible cells in the selection.
Set rng = Sheets("Output").Range("A1:C5").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
If rng Is Nothing Then
    MsgBox "The selection is not a range or the sheet is protected. " & _
           vbNewLine & "Please correct and try again.", vbOKOnly
    Exit Sub
End If
With Application
    .EnableEvents = False
    .ScreenUpdating = False
End With
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

With OutMail
    .To = TOADDRESSES
    .CC = CCADDRESSES
    .BCC = ""
    .Subject = "data for Team A: " & MonthEndDate
    .HTMLBody = StrBody & RangetoHTML(rng) & BottomBody
    ' In place of the following statement, you can use ".Display" to
    ' display the e-mail message.
    .Display
End With
On Error GoTo 0
With Application
    .EnableEvents = True
    .ScreenUpdating = True
End With
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub

Function RangetoHTML(rng As Range)
' By Ron de Bruin.
    Dim fso As Object
    Dim ts As Object
    Dim TempFile As String
    Dim TempWB As Workbook
    TempFile = Environ$("temp") & "/" & Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm-ss") & ".htm"
    'Copy the range and create a new workbook to past the data in
    rng.Copy
    Set TempWB = Workbooks.Add(1)
    With TempWB.Sheets(1)
        .Cells(1).PasteSpecial Paste:=8
        .Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, , False, False
        .Cells(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats, , False, False
        .Cells(1).Select
        Application.CutCopyMode = False
        On Error Resume Next
        .DrawingObjects.Visible = True
        .DrawingObjects.Delete
        On Error GoTo 0
    End With
    'Publish the sheet to a htm file
    With TempWB.PublishObjects.Add( _
         SourceType:=xlSourceRange, _
         FileName:=TempFile, _
         Sheet:=TempWB.Sheets(1).Name, _
         Source:=TempWB.Sheets(1).UsedRange.Address, _
         HtmlType:=xlHtmlStatic)
        .Publish (True)
    End With
    'Read all data from the htm file into RangetoHTML
    Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set ts = fso.GetFile(TempFile).OpenAsTextStream(1, -2)
    RangetoHTML = ts.ReadAll
    ts.Close
    RangetoHTML = Replace(RangetoHTML, "align=center x:publishsource=", _
                          "align=left x:publishsource=")
    'Close TempWB
    TempWB.Close savechanges:=False
    'Delete the htm file we used in this function
    Kill TempFile
    Set ts = Nothing
    Set fso = Nothing
    Set TempWB = Nothing
End Function

Its two functions, is there anything on a spreadsheet level, I need to enable?

Thanks

Make sure that you have all the required libraries selected.
Go to the computer where it works, go to the VB Editor, and click on Tools --> References and note all the libraries that are selected.
Then do the same on the computer where it is not working. Are there any missing? If so, select the closest match.

If that does not work, you may be using some VBA functions that changed between versions.

Thanks for the reply, I'm using both macros on my own PC so in one spreadsheet they work fine and in this one I get the active X error. They are both XLSM files.

Still try the same thing I recommended. Maybe all the libraries are not selected in the one that is not working.

I seem to have figure the issue, the macro works fine when in our share drive but wont work when saved in my local drive.
