I currently have a prompt asking me if I want to bcc a set address when I send a message. My issue is if I answer yes, i want it to prompt me to enter alpha - numeric that will be added to the end of the existing subject line, then complete the send process.

Any ideas?

Current BCC code.

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)

Dim objRecip As Recipient

Dim strMsg As String

Dim res As Integer

Dim strBcc As String

On Error Resume Next

strBcc = "email address here"

res = MsgBox("BCC this message to DNA Issues?", vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _

"BCC Message")

If res = vbNo Then

Cancel = False

Else

Set objRecip = Item.Recipients.Add(strBcc)

objRecip.Type = olBCC

If Not objRecip.Resolve Then

strMsg = "Could not resolve the Bcc recipient. " & _

"Please check the BCC Script configuration. " & _

"Do you want still to send the message?"

res = MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _

"Could not resolve BCC")

If res = vbNo Then

Cancel = True

End If

End If

End If

Set objRecip = Nothing

End Sub

I have been playing with this for over an hour and can't get it to work. i am trying the modification of the code to allow it to only apply to the active message. Any extra guidance you could provide?
 
Here is the updated code. I do get error's. I replaced the GetCurrent with Set objItem = objApp.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem since I only want it on the active email.

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)

Dim objRecip As Recipient

Dim strMsg As String

Dim res As Integer

Dim strBcc As String

On Error Resume Next

strBcc = "dna@issues.dealer.com"

res = MsgBox("BCC this message to DNA Issues?", vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _

"BCC Message")

If res = vbNo Then

Cancel = False

Else

Set objRecip = Item.Recipients.Add(strBcc)

objRecip.Type = olBCC

Sub AddFileNumber()

Dim aItem As Object

' Don't forget the function

Set objItem = objApp.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

Dim iItemsUpdated As Integer

Dim strTemp As String

Dim strFilenum As Variant


' removed the loop so it only works with the selected item

strFilenum = InputBox("Enter the file number")

' Empty value or cancel button

If strFilenum = False Then Exit Sub

If strFilenum = "" Then Exit Sub

strTemp = "[" & strFilenum & "] " & aItem.Subject
aItem.Subject = strTemp
aItem.Save

If Not objRecip.Resolve Then

strMsg = "Could not resolve the Bcc recipient. " & _

"Please check the BCC Script configuration. " & _

"Do you want still to send the message?"

res = MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _

"Could not resolve BCC")

If res = vbNo Then

Cancel = True

End If

End If

End If

Set objRecip = Nothing

End Sub

That was a duh! moment on my part - of course, with itemsend, its only going to be on the active mail. :) You don't even need that line in the code - you aren't using it (or at least, you shouldn't be using it.) You reference the item you are sending as Item.
 
This works for me -

I did two things - removed Sub AddFileNumber() and the set objitem lines. changed aItem to Item. When we "talk" about the message, we need to always refer to it by the same name. We use Item As Object in the beginning and need to stick with it. :)

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim objRecip As Recipient
Dim strMsg As String
Dim res As Integer
Dim strBcc As String
On Error Resume Next
strBcc = "me@domain.com"
res = MsgBox("BCC this message to DNA Issues?", vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _
"BCC Message")
If res = vbNo Then
Cancel = False
Else
Set objRecip = Item.Recipients.Add(strBcc)
objRecip.Type = olBCC
Dim strTemp As String
Dim strFilenum As Variant
strFilenum = InputBox("Enter the file number")
If strFilenum = False Then Exit Sub
If strFilenum = "" Then Exit Sub
strTemp = "[" & strFilenum & "] " & Item.Subject
Item.Subject = strTemp
Item.Save
If Not objRecip.Resolve Then
strMsg = "Could not resolve the Bcc recipient. " & _
"Please check the BCC Script configuration. " & _
"Do you want still to send the message?"
res = MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _
"Could not resolve BCC")
If res = vbNo Then
Cancel = True
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
 
Diane - The prompt is working, but does not add the entry to the subject line. If entry is null or cancel is selected I get the following error and my message is not sent. I also wanted to thank you for all your help.

Ah, i only tested yes and no.

Try this - i rearranged the order of the lines and added an IF Then statement so 1) the [] are not added if you cancel and 2) so it doesn't send if no # or that dialog is cancelled. You were exiting the sub if the field was blank rather than cancelling the send and Outlook didn't know what to do.

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim objRecip As Recipient
Dim strMsg As String
Dim res As Integer
Dim strBcc As String
On Error Resume Next
strBcc = "me@domain.com"
res = MsgBox("BCC this message to DNA Issues?", vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _
"BCC Message")
If res = vbNo Then
Cancel = False
Else
Dim strTemp As String
Dim strFilenum As Variant
strFilenum = InputBox("Enter the file number")
If strFilenum = "" Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "The file number was blank or you clicked Cancel." _
& vbCrLf & "click Send and select No if you don't want to BCC & add a file number."
Exit Sub

Else
strTemp = "[" & strFilenum & "] " & Item.Subject
Item.Subject = strTemp
Item.Save
End If

Set objRecip = Item.Recipients.Add(strBcc)
objRecip.Type = olBCC
If Not objRecip.Resolve Then
strMsg = "Could not resolve the Bcc recipient. " & _
"Please check the BCC Script configuration. " & _
"Do you want still to send the message?"
res = MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, _
"Could not resolve BCC")
If res = vbNo Then
Cancel = True
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
