Hi Bob --

Your only options are to rename the file before sending it as an attachment. Now, what you could do is have Excel (through VBA) save the spreadsheet using SaveAs onto a local hard disk to avoid conflicts and then attach the file from the local hard disk.

>We are producing an Excel spreadsheet using SYS(3) for our file naming convention. When I attach this file to an email via VBA is there a way to rename the attachment. For example, I am attaching file 73842324.XLS and want to call it NBLMUsage121598.XLS when it is attached.
