How to do excel to autotrigger mail

You want to automate sending emails from Excel to trigger specific actions or notifications. There are a few ways to achieve this:

Method 1: Using Excel's built-in features

  1. Create a new worksheet or use an existing one.
  2. Enter the email addresses, subject, and body of the email in separate columns.
  3. Use the Mail function in Excel to send the email. For example:
    =MAIL("[email protected]", "Subject", "Body")
  4. Use the IF function to trigger the email based on a condition. For example:
    =IF(A1>10, MAIL("[email protected]", "Subject", "Body"), "")

    This will send an email to the recipient when the value in cell A1 is greater than 10.

Method 2: Using VBA Macro

  1. Open the Visual Basic Editor in Excel by pressing Alt + F11 or navigating to Developer > Visual Basic.

  2. Create a new module by clicking Insert > Module.

  3. Write a VBA script to send the email using the Outlook object library. For example:

    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 = "Subject"
        .Body = "Body"
        .Send
     End With
    
     Set olMail = Nothing
     Set olApp = Nothing
    End Sub
  4. Use the Worksheet_Change event to trigger the email when a specific cell changes. For example:

    Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
     If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
         SendEmail
     End If
    End Sub

    This will send an email when the value in cell A1 changes.

Method 3: Using Power Automate (formerly Microsoft Flow)

  1. Create a new flow in Power Automate by clicking Create from blank and selecting Excel as the trigger.
  2. Choose the Excel file and worksheet you want to monitor.
  3. Set up the trigger to run when a specific cell changes or a condition is met.
  4. Add an Office 365 Outlook action to send the email.
  5. Configure the email settings, such as the recipient, subject, and body.
  6. Save and test the flow.

These are just a few examples of how you can automate sending emails from Excel. The method you choose will depend on your specific requirements and the complexity of your email automation needs.
