    Hi Thai,
    Re: hyperlink to the file
    I have done some research into this.
    It would appear that it is not possible to make a hyperlink in the body of a received EMail which will directly somehow “present” you with an Excel file.
    An Excel file cannot be opened with an internet Browser. ( Or if it can, I have not been able to find a way to do this. )

    From my research it appears that a hyperlink in a received Email body can typically only be of a file form which can be read by a Browser. This will typically be of
    Either:
    _(i) a form of a .HTML or .htm file, ( as an example, such as this, which I have successfully read from my browser, file:///F:/2018/Juni2018/DailyProtableFilled.htm by inserting that link directly into the URL bar

    File example: https://app.box.com/s/p84sm14vj11uenabjtzoo0qbq8dgd574
    )
    Or:
    _(ii) a link to some place where the file can be downloaded from. Such a link would start with the usual form similar to https://lasjfa.......

    So far I have only been able to embed an hyperlink in the body of the received Email which goes to an internet site, that is to say, _(ii), a form such as https://lasjfa.......

    So, currently I do not know how to produce a hyperlink in the Email received body text which will directly take you to an Excel File,

    Here are a couple of alternative solutions.

    Alternative 1
    The basic idea here is that the current File is attached to the sent Email

    This requires the use of a temporary File, as you can not seem to attach the file currently running the code to attach it.

    Alternative 2
    In this suggestion I use a hyperlink in the received Email that contains the URL share link to the file stored in a file sharing internet site, ( box net )
    The team member can then download the file from there, ( and they have the possibility to upload the file after they have made any adjustments to it )

    So the received Email has a form such as this, with a Hyperlink to click on:

    LinkInGerkanTelekom .JPG : https://imgur.com/PhDJSww

    After clicking on that Hyperlink, the Team Member has the possibility to download the file
