Welcome back Andrew. As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge. You walked us through the procedure, showed us some of the problems we could encounter and gave us nice and quick solutions. Thanks again 👍🏾
Sir Whatever i learn about vba with deep knowledge is just because of you i recently buy your book i love the book content and i will definetly join your training program too later when i will have money Whatever i can do for you at this time 🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much sir and love from india 🇮🇳
Excellent and fantastic video. I have been using HTML tags to write tables or ranges in mail item but this is really good and easy. I am really learning a lot from your videos. A BIG THANKS TO YOU. Looking forward for your next video.
Hi Andrew, Another great video! I found that creating another word variable, Dim wdsel as Word.Selection, then Setting wdsel = doc.windows(1).selection helps avoid the whole range method. I would then start a with wdsel statement and use the .insertafter method and the .Move wdParagraph, 1. I love your videos keep them coming 😀
Great video. Strange thing is get inspector works on my pc at home, but not at work. Tells me that I have an application or object defined error. It would seem that it's more of an object defined error. I have turned on the correct references/ libraries. So why do I get this error as soon as it gets to the get inspector line. It would be good if I knew this
Andrew, another brilliant video. I’ve stumbled upon an anomaly when it comes to inserting a very wide table. It appears it will often squeeze columns for various data pints and wrap the text. For example, the table is 6 rows and 8 columns with a comment column on the far right. The start date and end date on columns B and C will squeeze tighter and wrap the years. The table in excel has the proper width, however during the paste process, the 2nd and third columns become thinner. I was hoping to “select the table and have it auto fit or auto fit the widths but am stuck trying to access it in the email displayed.
Hi there, you can reference the table using the Tables property and referring to it by its index number. So after pasting your first table into the email you could say: doc.Tables(1).AutoFitBehavior wdAutoFitContent If you'd prefer your table to occupy the full width of the window, use wdAutoFitWindow rather than wdAutoFitContent I hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Very good. Somewhat works. Much Better than before. It might be a limitation or glitch with excel 2013 and outlook 2013. It works some of the time. What I realized is that I still have to follow up by going to the email, selecting and right click the table, Autofit, then Fixed Column Width to get the desired result. Though rare, I had to select Fixed Column Width twice to obtain the desired result. What vba code Should i use to accomplish the fixed column width for the word table?
Hi there, you can use wdAutoFitFixed instead of wdAutoFitContent or wdAutoFitWindow - you can see more information here docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/word.table.autofitbehavior I hope that helps!
Hello, Me again. I tried following your instruction to create an outlook email but I get an error message... I downloaded the file you shared on your website then with the code complete and I still got the same error message :"Application-defined or object-defined error" on the line :Set doc = mi.GetInspector.WordEditorWould you know how to solve this issue?(Both library from Word and Outlook are activated when trying to run the sub)Thank you very much in advance =)
Couldn’t hurt to try this. Instead of using doc = mi.GetInspector Try doc = ol.CreateItem(olMailItem).GetInspector In other words limit the number of items set within a set... Maybe excel 2013 has an issue with too many imbedded sets. Don’t know if it worked because I had a typo but I recall a similar issue and to troubleshoot I “spelled out” the entire item/object set and I did not receive an error. Maybe that helps.
Awesome communication skill.. One observation is that if we have to send more than 1 email then it gives an error i while sending 2nd (onwards) emails (command failed:4198 ) at the line of paste (when Excel table is copied and needs to paste in the email body)
Great to have you back... And thanks for this wonderful video. It was very helpful.. required an add-on to it.. how to format the texts within the body of the email. Like if I want to bold a text or want to color a text how to perform this... Plz help...
Thanks Rajkumar! You can format text in a Word document using a number of different properties. The best approach perhaps is to use Word's macro recorder - change a bunch of formatting options and see what code is written for you. To get you started, here's a bit of code to format the first four characters in the document: With doc.Range(0, 4).Font .Bold = True .TextColor.RGB = RGB(200, 0, 200) .Underline = wdUnderlineSingle End With I hope that helps!

The code leaves me with a new email with the Subject and the To fields with info and my signature. Also I see an open word document containing what should have been the email's body. Maybe the late binding applied to me word inspector is wrong but I'm not sure about it.
@@WiseOwlTutorials I got some updates! I tried using the constants for the parameters on the PasteSpecial function, and now it worked! I now get an email with the body filled with my message and my table. My current problem now is that the table gets pasted on a really small size. Would there be a way to resize this image? Also, I'm trying to add a "Best Regards," at the end of all, but the code inserts this part right next to my image. I could not figure out how to make it show two lines below the table.
Here is my code in case I did not make myself clear!

@@juanpablohorn6642 Hi Juan Pablo, try inserting the "Best Regards" first and then the NewLine, to use your style of code it would look like this:
Regards = "Best Regards,"
wdDoc.Range(0, 0).InsertAfter Regards
NewLine = Chr(10)
wdDoc.Range(0, 0).InsertAfter NewLine
I hope that helps!
@@WiseOwlTutorials! Hi Andrew! It worked! Now I only need to solve the table size on the image. Do you happen to have an idea?
As always, thanks a lot for your reply! I really appreciate it!
Hi , Thanks for your great tutorial. I'm trying to implement this and changing font sizes . It seems to work but only on LTR fonts. I'm trying to get my email to be RTL and control font size face.
Set objSel = objDoc.Windows(1).Selection
'
Set objSel = objDoc.Windows(1).Selection
With objSel
.Collapse wdCollapseStart
.Font.Name = "Arial"
.Font.Bold = False
.Font.Size = 16
.InsertBefore "שלום"
.Font.color = wdColorRed
End With
objSel.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = 2
In the above the hebrews can be changed the size remains 11, if i insert english text the font size changes to required size . Any suggestions??
Thanks
Meir
Hi Meir, that's interesting! The solution isn't just as simple as using InsertAfter rather than InsertBefore is it? (he asked hopefully!)
@@WiseOwlTutorials Thanks for the swift response and question . The insert after helps me with a different issue i was having that I after the email was created I wanted the user to be able to continue to edit (RTL) after the initial text i pushed. Now that I place text with the "InsertAfter" he can continue typing as normal. But as for being able to control the Text Size still the size of the text remains as Outlook Defaults no matter what i seem to do ..
Regards
i created something like this, but i am taking email body from .docx . but I have to crate personalized emails , for example its name have to change according to data from excel cell.but I cant find something like this on the internet.
Hi Mehmet! There are lots of different ways to do this sort of thing. Try Googling for "excel vba mail merge outlook" and you'll find plenty of suggestions.
I hope that helps!
@@WiseOwlTutorials thank you very much!
@@mecann1 No problem!
Great Video! I do have a question on how could we add attachment in between the body text? Like your video have shown, we could paste table in between text but is it possible to add attachment in between text under Rich Text format? Thank you
Hi Jonathan, you should be able to use the Position parameter of the Attachments.Add method to do this as described here docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/outlook.attachments.add
I hope it helps!
@@WiseOwlTutorials Thank you so much for the advice. It Works! Really appreciate your prompt reply.
@@jonathanchan7377 No problem Jonathan, happy to hear that it worked!
@@WiseOwlTutorials Sorry, come across another question. How could we change the font color of some part of the text in the email body?
@@jonathanchan7377 Hi Jonathan, you can use the Font ColorIndex property to do this
docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/word.font.colorindex
I hope it helps!
How can I include formatting like bold and underline?
Hi Nelson, here are some basic formatting options you can apply to a range of text. The code in the With block will format the text "Dear Someone":
MsgText = _
"Dear Someone," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine _
& "Please see the table below:" & vbNewLine
doc.Range(0, 0).InsertBefore Text:=MsgText
With doc.Range(0, 12)
.Bold = True
.Underline = wdUnderlineSingle
.Italic = True
.Font.TextColor.RGB = RGB(241, 132, 31)
End With
@@WiseOwlTutorials Hi, i have a similar question. If i want to change the font of the entire email, i tried using".WholeStory", it managed to change the font but it will always fail on the very first email i sent out in a loop. Could you advice if there are other way to do it? Thanks.
I think the problem is between 2019 and 2021. Get inspector. Wordrditor has a problem working in excel 2019. App defined or object defined error. No problem in 2021. I have all reference checked. Word and outlook library. Also OLE automation
Interesting, I don't recall having that problem with Office 2019 but we've been using Microsoft 365 for a few years now. I'm not sure what to suggest to solve the problem.
@@WiseOwlTutorials lucky you. I just thought this morning that my firm has disabled some VBA functionality. Is that possible
doc is an object variable of Word.Document and oOutlokkItm is an object variable of Outlook.MailItem thank you
3 godziny siedzę, kombinuje z jakimiś htmlami, funkcjami itp a to takie banalne 🤦♂ THX 👍👍
so just setting Set doc = oOutLokkItm.GetInspector.WordEditor gives me the error code number 287 in VBA and i have no clue how to solve it. Thanks

@@mikesmith8346 Sorry Mike, I don't know the answer to this one.
@@WiseOwlTutorials Thanks for replying. I suspect our IT dept. Has made a change in the background at is it was working before.
I have the word and outlook references checked. Clutchibg at straws but:
IsWordMail = True
ActiveInspector.EditorType = olEditorWord.
IsOutTrusted = False.
I have also tried preceding
Set doc = mi.GetInspector.WordEditor with
mi.GetInspector.Activate to no avail.
I can only think it must be a change in the background 🤔
