I wrote this simple script to auto populate info that i do several times a day.
When i runt he script I want to be able to add additional information on the subject line.
Right now the typing focus is after the to: email, how can i get it to be at the end of the subject line?

Sub actupd8()
'Add BCC
Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim myItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim objOutlookRecip As Outlook.Recipient
Set myOlApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
Set myItem = myOlApp.ActiveInspector.currentItem
With myItem
.To = "xxx.com" ' [the focus to type is here]
.CC = "xxxx.com"
.Subject = "Account Update" ' [want the focus here]


End With
SendKeys "^{ENTER}"
End Sub

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
First, I could not get your macro to create an email for me. I use a different macro that doesn't use
myOlApp, etc.

In any case, finally located these lines of code that work for me in my macro ... see if they work for you as well.

Code:
SendKeys "^{ENTER}"
 SendKeys "{TAB}"
 SendKeys "{TAB}"
 SendKeys "{TAB}"
 SendKeys "{TAB}"
 SendKeys "{TAB}"
 SendKeys "{END}", True
