Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can help me.

I'd like to set up a recurring email within Outlook. I've been told that you can't schedule an email to send but I've been given a code to convert a calendar invite into an email (as its a calendar invite I can schedule it to send when I want) The only thing is that I can't get the invite to send with the doc/pic embedded into it the email body.It just skips this out and sends a blank email.

Would someone be able to take a look at the below and advise? I'd be really grateful! Let me know if you need any other info

Private Sub Application_Reminder(ByVal Item As Object)

Dim objMsg As MailItem
Dim objApp As AppointmentItem
Dim Att As Object
Dim filePath As String
Set objMsg = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)

MsgBox "Email Tiggered"

'message is appointment
If Item.MessageClass <> "IPM.Appointment" Then Exit Sub
'The appointment is set as "Send Schedule Recurring Email" Category
If Item.Categories <> "Send Schedule Recurring Email" Then Exit Sub

'MsgBox Item.MessageClass
'MsgBox Item.Categories
'MsgBox Item.Location
'MsgBox Item.Subject
'MsgBox objMsg.Body
'MsgBox Environ("USERPROFILE")
'to get the path of the email attachment
tmpFolder = Environ("USERPROFILE")

'Add each attachment to email object to be sent
For Each Att In Item.Attachments
Embed.Object = ("\\TCFSH03\3087355$\My Pictures\Recurring Emails\EPICStarAwards")
objMsg.Attachments.Add ("\\TCFSH03\3087355$\My Pictures\Recurring Emails")
Kill filePath
Next Att

'send email object
objMsg.To = Item.Location
objMsg.Subject = Item.Subject
objMsg.Body = Item.Body
objMsg.Send
Set objMsg = Nothing

End Sub
 
Do you want to add the attachments or embed them? To move attachments from the appointment to the message, use the CopyAttachments sub -



Code: 
objMsg.To = Item.Location
objMsg.Subject = Item.Subject

  CopyAttachments Item, objMsg

objMsg.Body = Item.Body
objMsg.Send


Code: 
Sub CopyAttachments(objSourceItem, objTargetItem)
   Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
   Set fldTemp = fso.GetSpecialFolder(2) ' TemporaryFolder
   strPath = fldTemp.Path & "\"
   For Each objAtt In objSourceItem.Attachments
      strFile = strPath & objAtt.FileName
      objAtt.SaveAsFile strFile
      objTargetItem.Attachments.Add strFile, , , objAtt.DisplayName
      fso.DeleteFile strFile
   Next
 
   Set fldTemp = Nothing
   Set fso = Nothing
End Sub

Does the image change each time? If not, add it to the appt body. I'll also test it to see if i can get it to work attaching it later.

Hi Diane,
I’ve tried adding it as an object to the appointment body but when it sends it doesn’t appear in the email. No idea why!
