I had a code below, possible to attach a code which will attach any file tht found in Path of Attachment folder?
If no folder or nth in the folder, it will be ignored.



Code:
Sub SendEmail()


'START of confirmation message box'
    response = MsgBox("Start sending email?", vbYesNo)
    If response = vbNo Then
    MsgBox ("Macro Canceled!")
    Exit Sub
    End If
'END of confirmation message box'


Dim i As Integer, Mail_Object, Email_Subject, o As Variant, lr As Long
Dim wks As Worksheet


lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row


Set Mail_Object = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set wks = Worksheets("send_email")


For i = 2 To lr
        With Mail_Object.CreateItem(o)
            .To = wks.Range("B" & i).Value
            .CC = wks.Range("C" & i).Value
            .Subject = wks.Range("D" & i).Value
            .Body = wks.Range("E" & i).Value
            .Send
            '.display 'disable display and enable send to send automatically
            Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:03")) 'Pausing an application for 3s, before next email
    End With
Next i
        MsgBox "E-mail successfully sent", 64
        Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set Mail_Object = Nothing
End Sub

yes this one..! thank u so much!!! :):):)!!

Try this

In H put the folder and the pattern
Examples:

C:\Users\ABC\Desktop\SavedFolder\Email1\test.JPG
C:\Users\ABC\Desktop\SavedFolder\Email1\*.pdf
C:\Users\ABC\Desktop\SavedFolder\Email1\*



Code:
Sub SendEmail()
    Dim i As Integer, Mail_Object, Email_Subject, o As Variant, lr As Long, d As Long
    Dim wks As Worksheet, pf As String, wPath As String, wFile As Variant, wPattern As String


    'START of confirmation message box'
    response = MsgBox("Start sending email?", vbYesNo)
    If response = vbNo Then
        MsgBox ("Macro Canceled!")
        Exit Sub
    End If
    'END of confirmation message box'
    Set Mail_Object = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set wks = Worksheets("send_email")
    lr = wks.Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
    For i = 2 To lr
        With Mail_Object.CreateItem(o)
            .to = wks.Range("B" & i).Value
            .cc = wks.Range("C" & i).Value
            .Subject = wks.Range("D" & i).Value
            .Body = wks.Range("E" & i).Value & vbNewLine & _
                wks.Range("F" & i).Value & vbNewLine & _
                wks.Range("G" & i).Value
             
            pf = wks.Range("H" & i).Value
            d = InStrRev(pf, "\")
            wPath = Left(pf, d)
            wPattern = Mid(pf, d + 1)
            If wPattern = "" Then wPattern = "*.*"
            'If Right(wPath, 1) <> "\" Then wPath = wPath & "\"
            If Dir(wPath, vbDirectory) <> "" Then
                wFile = Dir(wPath & wPattern)
                On Error Resume Next
                Do While wFile <> ""
                    'If Dir(wPath & wFile) <> "" Then
                        .Attachments.Add wPath & wFile
                    'End If
                    wFile = Dir()
                Loop
                On Error GoTo 0
            End If
            '.Send
            .display 'disable display and enable send to send automatically
            Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:03")) 'Pausing an application for 3s, before next email
        End With
    Next i
    MsgBox "E-mail successfully sent", 64
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Set Mail_Object = Nothing
End Sub

Now, you already have 2 versions, in a column and in 2 columns.

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Hi,
After doing more testing.. I tot if possible to enhance more? :eeek:

Add a Status Update at Column I for .sent mode.

Function like MACRO can check the max attached that serve allow.

And Status able to put remarks:
IF email; found exceed server attached size, it will ABORT action. Then status will update with remark: exceed server size at Column I and process the next row email.
IF email; found wrong file URL, it will ABORT action. Than status will update with remark: wrong file path at Column I and process the next row email.
IF email; found wrong folder URL, it will ABORT action. Than status will update with remark: wrong folder path at Column I and process the next row email.
IF email no error found; it will send email and update status with remark: email send! at Column I and process the next email.

Code:
Remark at Col I
Value = "Attach exceed server size" 'attached files exceed server size <-- can put colour in red?
Value = "wrong file path " 'Path file wrong <-- can put colour in red?
Value = "wrong folder path " 'Path folder wrong <-- can put colour in red?
"email send!" 'successful send email

wonder, if tht possible? :/


I'm glad to help you. Thanks for the feedback.
