I managed to create an outlook mail with an image of a given range. However, trying to insert 2 images of different ranges results in one of the images being displayed correctly while the other results in "The picture can't be displayed"
This is what I have so far.






Code:
Sub test()


Dim OApp As Object
Dim OMail As Object
Dim signature As String
Set OApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OMail = OApp.CreateItem(0)
'------------------------------------------------------------------
'MAIL BODY
'------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim mailBody As String
mailBody = ""
'------------------------------------------------------------------
'CREATE MAIL IN OUTLOOK
'------------------------------------------------------------------
With OMail
    .To = "TEST@GMAIL.COM"
    .CC = ""
    .BCC = ""
    .Subject = "SUBJECT"
    .Display
    signature = .HTMLBody
    '------------------------------------------------------------------
    'IMAGE OF SELECTION  1ST
    '------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dim wdDoc As Word.Document
    Selection.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
    Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set wdDoc = OMail.GetInspector.WordEditor
    wdDoc.Range.PasteAndFormat Type:=wdChartPicture
    With wdDoc
        .InlineShapes(1).Height = 170
    End With




    First = .HTMLBody
    '------------------------------------------------------------------
    'IMAGE OF SELECTION 2ND
    '------------------------------------------------------------------
    Sheets("X").Range("B2:CW132").CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
    Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set wdDoc = OMail.GetInspector.WordEditor
    wdDoc.Range.PasteAndFormat Type:=wdChartPicture
    With wdDoc
        .InlineShapes(1).Height = 370
    End With
    '------------------------------------------------------------------
    .HTMLBody = mailBody & vbNewLine & First & .HTMLBody & signature




End With
End Sub
