Hi Ramakrishnan,

Welcome to ExcelFox !!

I got this code from here

Option Explicit
Sub SendWithLotus()
    
    Dim noSession As Object, noDatabase As Object, noDocument As Object
    Dim obAttachment As Object, EmbedObject As Object

    Dim vaRecipient As Variant, vaMsg As Variant
     
    Const EMBED_ATTACHMENT As Long = 1454
    Const stTitle As String = "Active workbook status"
    Const stMsg As String = "The active workbook must first be saved " & vbCrLf _
            & "before it can be sent as an attachment."
     
     'Check if the active workbook is saved or not
     'If the active workbook has not been saved at all.
    If Len(ActiveWorkbook.Path) = 0 Then
        MsgBox stMsg, vbInformation, stTitle
        Exit Sub
    End If
     
     'If the changes in the active workbook have been saved or not.
    If ActiveWorkbook.Saved = False Then
        If MsgBox("Do you want to save the changes before sending?", _
        vbYesNo + vbInformation, stTitle) = vbYes Then _
        ActiveWorkbook.Save
    End If
