Is it possible that you have declared another function with the same name? share|improve this answer answered Jun 23 '09 at 14:17 Ben Jones 764 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote Also, where (sometimes) I have copied a function, although I rename the function itself, and its calling line, sometimes I forget to rename the Return Parameter Assignment within the code. Then you get this "Argument not optional". share|improve this answer answered Jun 26 '14 at 13:42 Kenson Gurney 1 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

VBA in Excel: Compile Error: Argument not optional Discussion in 'Business Applications' started by Amapola, May 26, 2010. Thread Status: Not open for further replies.

This is similar but lots more complicated as I have 2 sheets, one with the contact list and the information going into the e-mail is per active row and the other one with information that's the same for each mail. Here's the code and it gives me the above error. It stumbles at GetBodyText in the .Body section. I'm trying to insert text from a .txt file into the body but it also needs to have the correct address (Dear ...) and my signature. So maybe I can't use this in combination?
