· 1 years agoHello, as per the auto-emailing component, is it possible to have a fixed Subject and a fixed Body? In other words I want to send emails without typing anything.

· 6 months agoI just figured out two work arounds for this trial version user
method 1) is to choose a cell that's outside your data and enter the fixed text there. A1 is the cell I chose for my example. in the formula you just need $ in front of the cell letter and number so it always will go to that cell no matter where you copy the formula to. (shown below in the fixed subject)
method 2) type the fixed info right in your formula with quotes example is the fixed body below
example: =HYPERLINK("mailto:" & B1 & "?subject="& $A$1 & "&body="&"fixed body","AutoEmail") -

im having an issue with the linking text to display afterwards, but other than that it works perfectly. -

To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.
· 2 years agoDear setu,
If you need to add another body in cell with this formula, please add this body cell into the body section and separate these two bodies by a seperator as you need: =HYPERLINK("mailto:"&B1&"?subject="&B2&"&body="&B3 &" "&B4,"Linking text"). See screenshot:-

· 1 years agoHello,
This was very helpful, I have one question, is there a way to create the body of the email such that B3 and B4 would be on their own separate line w/in the body of the email and not on one line? Make sense? I would like the feature to be such that it was like I pressed enter after B3 and B4 starts a new line.

· 2 years agoIan, as far as I know there is no attachment option in 'mailto:' syntax. It supports only aditional 'cc', 'bcc', 'subject' and 'body' fields.
-
To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.
· 2 years agoThere is, it is the Attachment= but, unfortunately, like you I have not found a way to include the current spreadsheet using it. You can use a Macro, but it only seems to work with Outlook:
Sub Email_Excel_Button()
ActiveWorkbook.SendMail Recipients:="you@there.com", Subject:="Spreadsheet"
End Sub

· 2 years agoGreat post. However, it will not work when I write 2017-2018 Insurance Invoices in the subject. If I simply write Insurance Invoices it works. Is there a limitation or a workaround solution? Thanks.

· 2 years agoWill, you are leading with numbers that you intend to use as text so just insert an apostrophe before the number. (ex: '2017-2018 Insurance Invoices.)

· 2 years agoHi,
I am using excel 2013, I have set up the e-mail link within excel. However when i click send the e-mail box pops up and requires me to click send manually. Is there a simple way or steps that I have to take in order to just click on the hyperlink and excel will automatically send the e-mail? And perhaps provide a confirmation that will log itself somewhere into the excel worksheet (so we know it's worked)? -

· 2 years agoThis does not work, at least with Office 2016. The created link places the cell reference in the To filed of the email opened in Outlook rather than the email address. In the example used, the email will be addressed to B1 rather than the content of cell B1.
