Copy Conditional Format from Excel to Outlook
I'm using Ron De bruin's excel to email code. I'm having conflicting ideas on how to copy a range of excel to Outlook and keep my conditional formatting. My output comes out fine but I'm not able to copy and paste the conditional format in column M and N of my spreadsheet. I think i have to change the vba code of the temporary Workbook to copy and paste the conditional formatting but not sure if I should change the rng in the RangetoHTML function or the Mail_Selection_Range_Outlo ok_Body(). I was experimenting with adding:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAllUsingSour ceTheme, Operation:=xlNone _
, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
But not having much luck.
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAllUsingSour
, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
But not having much luck.
