How to automate mail from excel

There are several ways to automate sending emails from Excel, depending on your specific needs and the version of Excel you're using. Here are a few options:

Method 1: Using VBA Macros

  1. Open your Excel file and enable the Developer tab by going to File > Options > Customize Ribbon and checking the box next to "Developer".

  2. In the Developer tab, click on the "Visual Basic" button to open the Visual Basic Editor.

  3. In the Visual Basic Editor, create a new module by clicking on "Insert" > "Module" or by pressing Alt+F11.

  4. Write a VBA script that uses the Outlook object library to send an email. You can use the following code as a starting point:

    Sub SendEmail()
     Dim olApp As Object
     Dim olMail As Object
    
     Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
     Set olMail = olApp.CreateItem(0)
    
     With olMail
        .To = "[email protected]"
        .Subject = "Test Email"
        .Body = "This is a test email sent from Excel"
        .Send
     End With
    
     Set olMail = Nothing
     Set olApp = Nothing
    End Sub
  5. Save the module and close the Visual Basic Editor.

  6. To run the macro, go to the Developer tab and click on the "Run" button or press F5.

Method 2: Using Excel's Built-in Email Functionality

  1. Select the cells that contain the email addresses you want to send to.
  2. Go to the "Data" tab and click on the "From Text" button in the "Get & Transform Data" group.
  3. In the "From Text" dialog box, select "Email" as the file type and click "OK".
  4. In the "Email" dialog box, enter the subject and body of the email, and select the email addresses from the cells you selected in step 1.
  5. Click "Send" to send the email.

Method 3: Using a Third-Party Add-in

  1. Install a third-party add-in such as SendEmail or Excel Emailer.
  2. Follow the add-in's instructions to set up and configure the email sending functionality.
  3. Use the add-in's interface to select the email addresses, subject, and body of the email, and click "Send" to send the email.

Method 4: Using Power Query and Outlook

  1. Select the cells that contain the email addresses you want to send to.
  2. Go to the "Data" tab and click on the "From Other Sources" button in the "Get & Transform Data" group.
  3. Select "From Microsoft Outlook" and click "OK".
  4. In the "From Outlook" dialog box, select the email account you want to use and click "OK".
  5. In the "Power Query Editor", select the email addresses from the cells you selected in step 1 and click "Load" to load the data into a new table.
  6. In the "Power Query Editor", click on the "Home" tab and click on the "Send Email" button in the "Tools" group.
  7. In the "Send Email" dialog box, enter the subject and body of the email, and select the email addresses from the table.
