I have code below to generate an email and the body is extracted using the range name "Bodytext" and then to extract data in E1 to last row in Col G and paste this as a table after the last text in the body of the email.


I need help with the following

1) The range name body text to appear in the body of the email with the same page breaks as the named range "bodyText"
2) The Ageing in Col F to be shown with zero decimals when pasted in the body of the email

Code:
 Sub Email_Report()
    
    ThisWorkbook.Activate ' Start in THIS workbook
    Dim zSubject As String
    Dim OutApp As Object, OutMail As Object
    Dim zText As String
    Dim lastRow As Long, i As Long
    Dim regex As Object, matches As Object, match As Object

    ' Read subject from named cell
    zSubject = Sheets("Email").Range("subjectText").Value
    
    ' Read body text from cell B2 ("BodyText") on sheet "Email"
    zText = Sheets("Email").Range("BodyText").Value
    
    Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

    
    With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Email")
        lastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row ' Find the last row in column E
        
        ' Initialize the email body with the content from "BodyText"
        zText = "<html><body>" & Replace(zText, vbCrLf, "<br>") & "</body></html>"
        
        ' Add the table header to the email body
        zText = zText & "<br><br><html><table border='1' cellpadding='5'><tr><th>Reference</th><th>Ageing</th><th>Amount</th></tr>"
        
        ' Add the data from F1 to last row in column G to the email body as table rows
        For i = 2 To lastRow ' Start from row 2 to skip headers
            zText = zText & "<tr><td>" & .Cells(i, "E").Value & "</td><td>" & .Cells(i, "F").Value & "</td><td>" & .Cells(i, "G").Value & "</td></tr>"
        Next i
        
        ' Close the table tag and complete the email body
        zText = zText & "</table></html>"
        
        ' Use regular expression to add line breaks after periods that are not part of a number
        Set regex = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
        regex.Global = True
        regex.IgnoreCase = True
        regex.Pattern = "([^0-9])\.\s"
        
        If regex.Test(zText) Then
            Set matches = regex.Execute(zText)
            For Each match In matches
                ' Check if the match is followed by a number, indicating a decimal number
                If IsNumeric(Mid(zText, match.FirstIndex + Len(match.Value) + 1, 1)) Then
                    ' Do not add line breaks
                Else
                    ' Add two line breaks after the period
                    zText = Replace(zText, match.Value, match.Value & "<br><br>")
                End If
            Next match
        End If
    End With

    With OutMail
        ActiveWorkbook.Save
        .To = Sheets("Email").Range("N1").Value
        .CC = Join(Application.Transpose(Sheets("Email").Range("N2:N5").Value), ";")
        .BCC = ""
        .Subject = zSubject
        .HTMLBody = zText
        .Attachments.Add ActiveWorkbook.FullName
        .Display
    End With

    On Error GoTo 0

    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub

Through trial and error, I finally came up with the following solution to suit my needs

Code:
 Sub Email_Report()
    
    ThisWorkbook.Activate ' Start in THIS workbook
    Dim zSubject As String
    Dim OutApp As Object, OutMail As Object
    Dim zText As String
    Dim lastRow As Long, i As Long
    Dim regex As Object, matches As Object, match As Object

    ' Read subject from named cell
    zSubject = Sheets("Email").Range("subjectText").Value
    
    ' Read body text from cell B2 ("BodyText") on sheet "Email"
    zText = Sheets("Email").Range("BodyText").Value
    
    Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)

    
    With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Email")
        lastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row ' Find the last row in column E
        
        ' Initialize the email body with the content from "BodyText"
        zText = "<html><body>" & Replace(zText, vbCrLf, "<br>") & "</body></html>"
        
        ' Add the table header to the email body
        zText = zText & "<br><br><html><table border='1' cellpadding='5'><tr><th>Reference</th><th>Ageing</th><th>Amount</th></tr>"
        
        ' Add the data from F1 to last row in column G to the email body as table rows
        For i = 2 To lastRow ' Start from row 2 to skip headers
            zText = zText & "<tr><td>" & .Cells(i, "E").Value & "</td><td>" & .Cells(i, "F").Value & "</td><td>" & .Cells(i, "G").Value & "</td></tr>"
        Next i
        
        ' Close the table tag and complete the email body
        zText = zText & "</table></html>"
        
        ' Use regular expression to add line breaks after periods that are not part of a number
        Set regex = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
        regex.Global = True
        regex.IgnoreCase = True
        regex.Pattern = "([^0-9])\.\s"
        
        If regex.Test(zText) Then
            Set matches = regex.Execute(zText)
            For Each match In matches
                ' Check if the match is followed by a number, indicating a decimal number
                If IsNumeric(Mid(zText, match.FirstIndex + Len(match.Value) + 1, 1)) Then
                    ' Do not add line breaks
                Else
                    ' Add two line breaks after the period
                    zText = Replace(zText, match.Value, match.Value & "<br><br>")
                End If
            Next match
        End If
    End With

    With OutMail
        ActiveWorkbook.Save
        .To = Sheets("Email").Range("N1").Value
        .CC = Join(Application.Transpose(Sheets("Email").Range("N2:N5").Value), ";")
        .BCC = ""
        .Subject = zSubject
        .HTMLBody = zText
        .Attachments.Add ActiveWorkbook.FullName
