I constructed this approach while looking for how to send a message on a recurring schedule. Signature.ApplyTo Msg, false 'apply at the bottomĮDIT: as of July 2017, MailItem.GetInspector in Outlook 2016 no longer inserts the signature.
Set Signature = Account.NewMessageSignature Set Account = (2).Item(1) 'first mail account Set Drafts = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDrafts) ApplyTo method that takes a pointer to the RDOMail object and inserts the signature at the specified location correctly merging the images and the styles: set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession") ReplySignature and NewSignature properties. New message signature name is stored in the 0x0016001F property, reply signature is in 0x0017001F. If using Redemption is an option, you can use its RDOAccount object (accessible in any language, including VBA). It will also be your responsibility to merge the HTML styles from the signature HTML file with the styles of the message itself. Once you have the signature name, you can read the HTML file from the file system (keep in mind that the folder name (Signatures in English) is localized.Īlso keep in mind that if the signature contains images, they must also be added to the message as attachments and the tags in the signature/message body adjusted to point the src attribute to the attachments rather than a subfolder of the Signatures folder where the images are stored. You can see the interface and its data in OutlookSpy if you click the IOlkAccountManager button. Since that interface is Extended MAPI, it can only be accessed using C++ or Delphi. On a general note, the name of the signature is stored in the account profile data accessible through the IOlkAccountManager Extended MAPI interface. Outlook Object Model does not expose signatures at all. if you want to insert your string at the top of the HTML body, look for the "" (this takes care of the element with attributes), then insert your HTML string after that ">".

Note that you cannot simply concatenate 2 HTML strings - the strings need to be merged. Once the signature is added, read the HTMLBody property and merge it with the HTML string that you are trying to set. Outlook adds the signature to the new unmodified messages (you should not modify the body prior to that) when you call MailItem.Display (which causes the message to be displayed on the screen) or when you access the MailItem.GetInspector property - you do not have to do anything with the returned Inspector object, but Outlook will populate the message body with the signature. ObjMail.HTMLBody = ObjMail.Body & "HTML Table goes here" Set ObjMail = OlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem) So I guess my question is now: How do I display the default signature and still display an html table? Sub X() Thanks to JP (see comments), I realize that the default signature is showing up at first, but it disappears when I use HTMLBody to add a table to the email. (Called with getboiler(SigString = "C:\Users\" & Environ("username") & "\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Signatures\Mysig.txt")) Set ts = fso.GetFile(sFile).OpenAsTextStream(1, -2) Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") So this works, but it's not ideal: Function GetBoiler(ByVal sFile As String) As String But this will be used by several people and they may have a different name for their default htm signature file. Ideally, I'd like to just use ObjMail.GetDefaultSignature, but I can't find anything like it.Ĭurrently, I'm using the function below (found elsewhere on the internet) and referencing the exact path & filename of the htm file. This would be the default signature that is automatically added when creating a new email. After creating the mailitem object, how do I add the default signature to the email? It's been smooth coding so far, but I'm new to Outlook. I am writing a VBA script in Access that creates and auto-populates a few dozen emails.
