EXCEL VBA send dynamic emails messages based on trigger column

I am attempting to send emails to a distribution list based on a trigger column (column E). Each row that contains the word "Captured" should send an email to the address in column A. The email body for these outgoing emails should contain content in column D. Ideally I would like the Name (B) and Client (C) to dynamically appear in the Subject of the email.


The code below, fires to the correct recipients but sends the same message body (last one within the list to all email addresses).

I am in need of this for a large project so any help would be amazing!

reason why your receipts are dynamic but nothing else is because of this line

you dont have something similar for your mess or your subject
to get subject in there you should have a variable to capture subject as well

how exactly do you want to structure your subject and your "mess"

ps why are you using

i've reconstructed what i think your spreadsheet looks like and added some sample code of what you could possibly do

see if you does what you want
ps i changed .send to .display so it doesnt automatically send out emails while you are debugging

yes, essentially
you put the mailitems (.to,.subject,.body,etc) within the icounter For/Next Loop
so it generates seperate email per loop

this is slightly more complicated
i will need to have a little think on how to do this the easiest way

how many rows of data are you expecting to run this for?
50, 1000, 1000000?

you can do capture > sent code at the same time of the email
no need to run it seperately

On unique emails
can i put a helper column in the data to count number of emails to each email address?
it would save me putting it in the code itself

also re:subject
i changed it to Subject = "Monsanto " & Cells(Icounter, 3).Value & " Application Development " & Cells(Icounter, 2).Value & " Opportunity"
however in the case there are more than one emails, how do you want subject handled?

it was a bit more complicated then i thought but no need for helper column since you change "Captured" to "sent"

few more variables involved mainly with capturing multiple lines into one email

I took your example and modified it slightly. Bug one from above is resolved. Bug two still exists.

If the enhancement from my post above isn't possible I would like to format the email body with two columns Cap and Mess. A grid would be ideal.

Thoughts? Also I would be happy to attach my excel project to these posts but it appears I am not able too.

ok i found the issues in your code

you didnt update the column references properly on every line

ie

should be

and your rangetosearch wasnt pointing to the right column

in turn it wasnt updating column 9 properly

so i had a chance to properly review your code
it seems you had two running variables "cap" and "mess" to change essentially one line of Body
this seems unnecessary and can lead to confusion so i combined into one

also got rid of mutliple CountA lines and replaced them with one variable that you calculate once

attached new file
hopefully this one works properly now

not a problem
glad to have helped
