Hi all. Some context first. I have a working spreadsheet that has a basic automated email macro (i.e., click this button and will email someone). It looks like this -

Excel Formula:
Sub EMAIL()

'Set email objects
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim strbody As String

'Set up Outlook
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

'Create Mail in Outlook
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

strbody = "Hello," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
          "XXXX" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
          "**********THIS EMAIL HAS BEEN AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED, PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND**********"

On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
    .To = ""
    .CC = ""
    .BCC = ""
    .Subject = "XXXX"
    .Body = strbody
    'You can add a file like this
    '.Attachments.Add ("C:\test.txt")
    .Send   'or use .Display
End With
On Error GoTo 0

Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing

MsgBox ActiveCell.Value & vbNewLine & _
"NOTIFICATION SENT"

End Sub

If possible I'd like to add an editable pop-up box similar to the MsgBox, but editable, so that whoever is clicking the button can add a comment that will then be included in the body of the email. Not sure if something like this can be added to a macro, any suggections?

Thanks!!

Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Yes it can - InputBox is the command you want.

Ah, OK. How would I incorporate that into my current code though? Would I need to define it at the top as something then include it at .Body?
