Good evening, I found a Code on "The VBA Guide To Sending Excel Attachments Through Outlook — The Spreadsheet Guru". For Sending Excel Attachments Through Outlook. This is a very powerful and beautiful code. Thanks to the developer.
I am trying to learn and figure out how can I remove data connections in the file that is generated out of this macro. I am trying to modify this macro to insert below macro but I am not able to figure it out how.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time.
VBA Code:
Sub EmailSelectedSheets()
'PURPOSE: Create email message with only Selected Worksheets attached
'SOURCE: www.TheSpreadsheetGuru.com
Dim SourceWB As Workbook
Dim DestinWB As Workbook
Dim OutlookApp As Object
Dim OutlookMessage As Object
Dim TempFileName As Variant
Dim ExternalLinks As Variant
Dim TempFilePath As String
Dim FileExtStr As String
Dim DefaultName As String
Dim UserAnswer As Long
Dim x As Long
'Optimize Code
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
'Copy only selected sheets into new workbook
Set SourceWB = ActiveWorkbook
SourceWB.Windows(1).SelectedSheets.Copy
Set DestinWB = ActiveWorkbook
'Check for macro code residing in
If Val(Application.Version) >= 12 Then
If SourceWB.FileFormat = 51 And SourceWB.HasVBProject = True Then
UserAnswer = MsgBox("There was VBA code found in this xlsx file. " & _
"If you proceed the VBA code will not be included in your email attachment. " & _
"Do you wish to proceed?", vbYesNo, "VBA Code Found!")
'Handle if user cancels
If UserAnswer = vbNo Then
DestinWB.Close SaveChanges:=False
GoTo ExitSub
End If
End If
End If
'Determine Temporary File Path
TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\"
'Determine Default File Name for InputBox
If SourceWB.Saved Then
DefaultName = Left(SourceWB.Name, InStrRev(SourceWB.Name, ".") - 1)
Else
DefaultName = SourceWB.Name
End If
'Ask user for a file name
TempFileName = Application.InputBox("What would you like to name your attachment? (No Special Characters!)", _
"File Name", Type:=2, Default:=DefaultName)
If TempFileName = False Then GoTo ExitSub 'Handle if user cancels
'Determine File Extension
If SourceWB.Saved = True Then
FileExtStr = "." & LCase(Right(SourceWB.Name, Len(SourceWB.Name) - InStrRev(SourceWB.Name, ".", , 1)))
Else
FileExtStr = ".xlsx"
End If
'Break External Links
ExternalLinks = DestinWB.LinkSources(Type:=xlLinkTypeExcelLinks)
'Loop Through each External Link in ActiveWorkbook and Break it
On Error Resume Next
For x = 1 To UBound(ExternalLinks)
DestinWB.BreakLink Name:=ExternalLinks(x), Type:=xlLinkTypeExcelLinks
Next x
On Error GoTo 0
'Save Temporary Workbook
DestinWB.SaveCopyAs TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr
'Create Instance of Outlook
On Error Resume Next
Set OutlookApp = GetObject(class:="Outlook.Application") 'Handles if Outlook is already open
Err.Clear
If OutlookApp Is Nothing Then Set OutlookApp = CreateObject(class:="Outlook.Application") 'If not, open Outlook
If Err.Number = 429 Then
MsgBox "Outlook could not be found, aborting.", 16, "Outlook Not Found"
GoTo ExitSub
End If
On Error GoTo 0
'Create a new email message
Set OutlookMessage = OutlookApp.CreateItem(0)
'Create Outlook email with attachment
On Error Resume Next
With OutlookMessage
.To = ""
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = TempFileName
.Body = "Please see attached." & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Chris"
.Attachments.Add TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr
.Display
End With
On Error GoTo 0
'Close & Delete the temporary file
DestinWB.Close SaveChanges:=False
Kill TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr
'Clear Memory
Set OutlookMessage = Nothing
Set OutlookApp = Nothing
'Optimize Code
ExitSub:
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
I am trying to learn and figure out how can I remove data connections in the file that is generated out of this macro. I am trying to modify this macro to insert below macro but I am not able to figure it out how.
VBA Code:
For i = 1 To DestinWB.Connections.Count
If DestinWB.Connections = 0 Then Resume Next
DestinWB.Connections.Delete
Next i
On Error Resume Next
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time.
