Hi all, i'm using the macro below to send try send a worksheet via outlook. The button created in my worksheet is called reconcile. The problem is when .display is used the macro runs fine, but when i change this to .send and click the reconcile button nothing happens. I've seen this has happened to others before, i've tried sendkeys but no luck. Is there something else i can try or is there something wrong with the coding? (I found this coding on a website)

Sub Reconcile()
'Update 20131209
Dim xFile As String
Dim xFormat As Long
Dim Wb As Workbook
Dim Wb2 As Workbook
Dim FilePath As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim OutlookApp As Object
Dim OutlookMail As Object
On Error Resume Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set Wb = Application.ActiveWorkbook
ActiveSheet.Copy
Set Wb2 = Application.ActiveWorkbook
Select Case Wb.FileFormat
Case xlOpenXMLWorkbook:
xFile = ".xlsx"
xFormat = xlOpenXMLWorkbook
Case xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled:
If Wb2.HasVBProject Then
xFile = ".xlsm"
xFormat = xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
Else
xFile = ".xlsx"
xFormat = xlOpenXMLWorkbook
End If
Case Excel8:
xFile = ".xls"
xFormat = Excel8
Case xlExcel12:
xFile = ".xlsb"
xFormat = xlExcel12
End Select
FilePath = Environ$("temp") & ""
FileName = Wb.Name & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy")
Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutlookMail = OutlookApp.CreateItem(0)
Wb2.SaveAs FilePath & FileName & xFile, FileFormat:=xFormat
With OutlookMail
.To = "hello@madeup.com"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "test123"
.Body = "test"
.Attachments.Add Wb2.FullName
.Send
End With
Wb2.Close
Kill FilePath & FileName & xFile
Set OutlookMail = Nothing
Set OutlookApp = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Hi

Comment out the On Error Resume Next statement and see if you get an error. What happens if you use the code to display the message and then try to send manually?

Are you using a valid recipient address?
