I have the following code that works most of the times, sometimes if gives me this error when using it consecutively too quickly: Run-time error 1004 CopyPucture method of range class failed.
But I guess I can live with that :(

What I need is to be able to add add text before the picture in the outlook mail message it pastes the picture into.

I don't know how to do that, can someone help me?

VBA Code:
Sub ScreenShotMain()
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim olApp As Object
    Dim Email As Object
    Dim Sht As Excel.Worksheet
    Dim wdDoc As Word.Document

    Set rng = Sheets("Calc").Range("B4:C17")
        rng.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture

    With Application
        .EnableEvents = False
        .ScreenUpdating = False
    End With

    Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set Email = olApp.CreateItem(0)
'

    With Email
        '.To = "mcerrato"
        .CC = ""
        .BCC = ""
        .Subject = "Forward Commitment" ' & Range("F5").Value
        .Display
            Set wdDoc = Email.GetInspector.WordEditor
        wdDoc.Range.PasteAndFormat Type:=wdChartPicture

'        if need setup inlineshapes height & width
         With wdDoc
            .InlineShapes(1).Height = 230
         End With

        
    End With

    With Application
        .EnableEvents = True
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With

    Set Email = Nothing
    Set olApp = Nothing
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Try this:

VBA Code:
Sub ScreenShotMain()
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim olApp As Object
    Dim Email As Object
    Dim Sht As Excel.Worksheet
    Dim wdDoc As Word.Document

    Set rng = Sheets("Calc").Range("B4:C17")
        rng.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture

    With Application
        .EnableEvents = False
        .ScreenUpdating = False
    End With

    Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set Email = olApp.CreateItem(0)

    With Email
      .To = "damor"
      .CC = ""
      .BCC = ""
      .Subject = "Forward Commitment" ' & Range("F5").Value
      .Body = "text before the picture" & vbCr & vbCr
      .Display
      DoEvents
      SendKeys "^{End}", True
      SendKeys "{Enter}", True
      SendKeys "^{v}", True
      .Display
    End With

    With Application
        .EnableEvents = True
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With

    Set Email = Nothing
    Set olApp = Nothing
End Sub
