In the code example below, you can set the web location (URL) of the image that you wish to add and its size.
This top-banner can be just an image but also some additional text which you want to add to the top of your outgoing message. Upon sending, this macro will add the required HTML for your top-banner to your message. To fully automate adding a top-banner to your outgoing emails, without any of the aforementioned downsides, you can use the “Send with Banner” macro from this guide. Of course, this method isn’t fully automated and can still be cumbersome when you have to do it for most, if not all, of your messages. Especially when you call the Quick Part something like “” and then use AutoComplete (F3) to insert it. Using a Quick Part is actually a quite workable solution. And then you also still have the issue with the cursor positioning just as when having it defined as a Signature. When implementing it as a Template or Stationery, it will not work on replies and forwards, only new emails.
Text within a signature area is excluded from Spelling Check and AutoCorrect and will be lost when you switch signatures. When using the TAB keyboard button to move from the message header subject to the message body, the cursor is places in front of the banner rather than below it. When implementing it as a signature, you’ll run into 2 issues: A default Signature (and then write your message between the top-banner and actual signature part). Available methods built into Outlook: Pros and ConsĪvailable methods built into Outlook: Pros and ConsĪside from adding the picture manually each time, there are various built-in features in Outlook to (semi-)automate adding a banner at the top such as:. This guide provides several approaches how to solve this issue with the available Outlook features but also includes a VBA macro solution to fully automate adding the banner to your outgoing emails in a non-intrusive way. While this seems like an easy request, implementing it in such a way that it is added automatically is actually quite challenging and has its limitations in Outlook usability. Aside from having a default signature, when creating a new message or reply/forward, some people (usually in marketing) also prefer to have a banner or special header text at the top of the message.
