I have been using the following macro, which works very well indeed, but it has come to the point where it needs some enhancements:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim myMail As String
If Target.Column = 7 Then
If Target.Value = "option 1" Then
myMail = "email1"
ElseIf Target.Value = "option 2" Then
myMail = "email2"
ElseIf Target.Value = "option 3" Then
myMail = "email3"
ElseIf Target.Value = "option 4" Then
myMail = "email4"
ElseIf Target.Value = "option 5" Then Exit Sub
End If
With CreateObject("Outlook.Application").CreateItem(0)
.To = myMail
.Subject = "Hello"
.Body = "Hi," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "This is a test"
.Display
End With
End If
End Sub
The "options" are selected from a drop down list contained in each cell in column 7 (it wouldn't let me use "G"). Upon selecting one of the options, an email is automatically generated.
I would now like to add to the subject line of the email, the value of the cell from column "A" in the same row. eg. If option 3 is selected in cell G15, the value from cell A15 needs to be added to the subject line of the email.
As well as this, a further enhancement is needed:
As the worksheet is likely to grow into 100's of lines I would like the macro to generate a hyperlink which links to the exact cell in column "A" (from where the value added to the email subject line was taken). This hyperlink then needs to be automatically added to the body of the email.
You have posted working code. It would be prefered to include your attempted changes to this code that adress the needs you have. And tell us what part you got stuck on. That way it's easier to help. Just a simple headsup;
Target.Row
would tell you the exact (or rather first) line of the changed cell/range. – JvdV – 2019-08-12T12:26:14.370As yet I have not made any attempts to change this code as I wouldn't know where to start. – GlynB – 2019-08-12T13:32:02.603
I recommend starting with the

object and reading about it on websites like this one Put a little effort into understanding what you're reading, put more effort into recognizing patterns, and put and most of your effort into finding, using, and understanding the examples that help you build your project. Switch it up when you feel like you're stuck because you will find solutions to some of your toughest challenges when you're not looking for them .
