Hello everyone,
I am an Excel novice, I have a macro working in Windows, where the user clicks a button and the email client (Outlook) is opened, the spreadsheet is attached and 'To', 'Subject' and email body are pre-populated.
The objective to allow the user to amend the email wording as needed, plus allows them to hit send.
The code works fine in Windows but I have to admit I am struggling to get it working on Mac. Appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks!!!

Windows VBA Script (works on Window machine)Attempt to replicate macro for Mac
Sub CreateEmailWindows()
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet

' Set the workbook and worksheet you want to send
Set wb = ThisWorkbook ' The current workbook
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Extd and Advd") ' Replace "SheetName" with your sheet's name

' Create a new Outlook instance
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0) ' 0 represents a mail item

' Compose the email
With OutMail
.To = "supportsalesquote@ibm.com"
.subject = "Please help me create a sales quote based on the customer and products in the file attachment"
.Body = "Dear CoE Team, please assist me in creating a sales quote for the customer & parts listed in the attachment. Let me know if you have any additional questions. Many thanks!"
.attachments.Add wb.FullName ' Attach the entire workbook
' .Attachments.Add ws.UsedRange.Address ' Attach only the used range of the worksheet
.Display
End With

' Clean up
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub
Sub SendEmailMac()
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim tempFile As String

' Set the workbook and worksheet you want to send
Set wb = ThisWorkbook ' The current workbook
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Extd and Advd") ' Replace "SheetName" with your sheet's name

' Save a temporary copy of the workbook
tempFile = Environ$("TEMP") & Application.PathSeparator & "TempWorkbook.xlsx"
wb.SaveCopyAs tempFile

' Create a new Outlook instance
On Error Resume Next
Set OutApp = GetObject(class:="Outlook.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
If OutApp Is Nothing Then Set OutApp = CreateObject(class:="Outlook.Application")

' Create a new mail item
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0) ' 0 represents a mail item

' Compose the email
With OutMail
.To = "supportsalesquote@ibm.com"
.subject = "Please help me create a sales quote based on the customer and products in the file attachment"
.Body = "Dear CoE Team, please assist me in creating a sales quote for the customer & parts listed in the attachment. Let me know if you have any additional questions. Many thanks!"
.attachments.Add tempFile ' Attach the temporary workbook copy
.Display
End With

' Clean up
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing

' Delete the temporary file
Kill tempFile
End Sub
