How to add default signature in Outlook
The code below will create an outlook message & keep the auto signature
Dim OApp As Object, OMail As Object, signature As String
Set OApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OMail = OApp.CreateItem(0)
With OMail
.Display
End With
signature = OMail.body
With OMail
'.To = "[email protected]"
'.Subject = "Type your email subject here"
'.Attachments.Add
.body = "Add body text here" & vbNewLine & signature
'.Send
End With
Set OMail = Nothing
Set OApp = Nothing
Dim OutApp As Object, OutMail As Object, LogFile As String
Dim cell As Range, S As String, WMBody As String, lFile As Long
S = Environ("appdata") & "\Microsoft\Signatures\"
If Dir(S, vbDirectory) <> vbNullString Then S = S & Dir$(S & "*.htm") Else S = ""
S = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetFile(S).OpenAsTextStream(1, -2).ReadAll
WMBody = "<br>Hi All,<br><br>" & _
"Last line,<br><br>" & S 'Add the Signature to end of HTML Body
Just thought I'd share how I achieve this. Not too sure if it's correct in the defining variables sense but it's small and easy to read which is what I like.
I attach WMBody to .HTMLBody within the object Outlook.Application OLE.
Hope it helps someone.
Thanks, Wes.
My solution is to display an empty message first (with default signature!) and insert the intended strHTMLBody
into the existing HTMLBody
.
If, like PowerUser states, the signature is wiped out while editing HTMLBody you might consider storing the contents of ObjMail.HTMLBody
into variable strTemp
immediately after ObjMail.Display
and add strTemp
afterwards but that should not be necessary.
Sub X(strTo as string, strSubject as string, strHTMLBody as string)
Dim OlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim ObjMail As Outlook.MailItem
Set OlApp = Outlook.Application
Set ObjMail = OlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
ObjMail.To = strTo
ObjMail.Subject = strSubject
ObjMail.Display
'You now have the default signature within ObjMail.HTMLBody.
'Add this after adding strHTMLBody
ObjMail.HTMLBody = strHTMLBody & ObjMail.HTMLBody
'ObjMail.Send 'send immediately or
'ObjMail.close olSave 'save as draft
'Set OlApp = Nothing
End sub
