The codes open a Email find but can`t seem to grab any files?

VBA Code:
Private Sub Email_Files_Click()

    Dim objol     As Object
    Dim objmail   As Object
    Dim objFolder As Object
    Dim fso       As Object
    Dim fsFolder  As Object
    Dim fsFile    As Object
    Dim strFolder As String
    Dim strFile   As String
    Dim MyPath    As String
    Dim Pdf       As String
    Dim DXF       As String
    Dim SubPath   As String
    Dim PDFFName  As String
    Dim DXFFName  As String
    Dim CmbData

   

    CmbData = Split(Me.OpenDrawing.Value, "-")
    CmbData(0) = Replace(CmbData(0), "-", "")
    SourcePath = "\\dc01\Company\R&D\Drawing Nos"
    SubPath = CStr(Val(Int(CmbData(0) / 50) * 50 + 1) & "-" & Int(CmbData(0) / 50 + 1) * 50)
    

    strFolder = (SourcePath & "\" & SubPath & "\" & OpenDrawing.Value)
    strFile = Dir(strFolder & "*.pdf")

    Set objol = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set objmail = objol.CreateItem(0)

With objmail
.to = "darren@drainfast.co.uk"
.cc = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "All Files to Send" & Format(Date, "mm/dd/yyyy")
.Display
.HTMLBody = "Please see Attached files to Process <p>" & _
"And or Please see Attached files to Quote for"

   Do While strFile <> ""
       .Attachments.Add strFolder & strFile
       strFile = Dir
       Loop
        
End With

errhndl:
        Set objFolder = Nothing
        Set fso = Nothing
        Set fsFolder = Nothing
        Set objol = Nothing
        Set objmail = Nothing
        
End Sub

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
strFolder = (SourcePath & "\" & SubPath & "\" & OpenDrawing.Value)

While the above statement assigns a path to strFolder, it should end with a backslash ( \ ) . Does it?

Try...

VBA Code:
.Attachments.Add FSOFile.Path

Hope this helps!

You're very welcome, glad I could help.

By the way, you don't need the following line of code. So you can get rid of it.

Code:
Set FSOFile = FSOFolder.Files

Also, you have the line label errhndl: for an On Error GoTo statement, but your code doesn't have the On Error GoTo statement. So, unless your actual code contains an On Error GoTo statement, you can get rid of it as well.

Cheers!
