Hello all,

I am trying to create a macro for Outlook 2003 that will open a new message, populate the From Field, populate the Subject field (these never change), and then populate the body of the email (which also never changes). I am very new to this. My goal is to steamline the process down to "click a button, get a populated email".

I have the first part:

Dim olkMsg As Outlook.MailItem
Set olkMsg = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
olkMsg.SentOnBehalfOfName = "Email address"
olkMsg.Subject = "My Subject"
olkMsg.Display

And the message:

Selection.TypeText Text:="Good morning,"
Selection.TypeParagraph
Selection.TypeParagraph

.... and so on

When I run the macro, the first part executes fine. I run into problems with the body of the email, because I keep getting the following error:

Run-time error '424': Object Required

What object should come between the first part of my macro and the text?

Thank you!
