Thanks again Michael - I'm obviously not famailar wit Doc objects ( normally
work with Access, Excel and Outook). I have tried this code but get error a compliatio error 'Type error' on Set objPara = "Some Text" :- ' Other Dims Dim objPara As Word.Paragraph Set objEmail = objDrafts.Items.Add Set Doc = objEmail.GetInspector.WordEditor Set objPara = "Some Text" objPara.Copy wdRn.Paste Set wdRn = Doc.Range.End Set xlRn = Range(Cells(aa, 4), Cells(bb, 17)) xlRn.Copy wdRn.Paste There must be an easy way to insert some text with Range object? I've tried several properties. The code line Set wdRn = Doc.Range.End also fails.

You can exactly determine the Range before calling its Paste method. Or you paste the table first, then write additional text at the beginning of the document and some at it's end. Outlook's object model doesn't allow you to place the cursor into an e-mail's body. For instance, you could call the Insert commadn via the toolbar, but if the cursor is currently in the To field then the clipboard content gets inserted into that field. If you don't want to use Word as mail editor then you need a workaround.

![]() There's no difference between Excel Word & Co.: You can't set an object variable to a non-object. Please look into the obejct browser (F2) and switch from All Libraries to Word. Select the Range class in the left pane and you can view all its properties, methods etc. in the right pane. There you'll see that the End property returns a Long value and not an object. You can use that and the Start property to set the range. That is also explained if you select one of the properties and press F1. A sample: If you set Start=0 and End=0 then the cursor is at the beginning of the document. Now you can write some text into Range.Text. Then set the Range to the end and paste the table etc. -- Viele Gruesse / Best regards Michael Bauer - MVP Outlook Keep your Outlook categories organized! http://www.shareit.com/product.html?...4&languageid=1 (German: http://www.VBOffice.net/product.html?pub=6) Am Thu, 1 Feb 2007 01:32:00 -0800 schrieb Andy: Thanks again Michael - I'm obviously not famailar wit Doc objects ( normally work with Access, Excel and Outook).

Thanks Michael,
You are right. Thsi option is disabled in my outlook 2003 automatically. Is there anyway that I can enable this option. Actually I don't want to use Word as editor. For this you suggested for using Redemption. My clients also cna have different verison of outlook i.e. outlook XP/ 2000/2003/2007 etc. At my development server I am running Outlook 2003. Cna I have any help on this please. I am trying to use Redemption.RDOs. But not having much expertise in VBA I lost. Can I have any code sample for this please. Really appreciate your time.
