Sending a chart in mail body

Question

I'm trying to modify Ron de Bruin's code to send a chart in mail body.

I export the chart and save it as an PNG image, then I modify HTML code to add it to the message.

The code should run on a server and send mails to people in my workplace.

When using MailItem.Display and manually clicking "send" when my message appears, everything works.
When I try to use MailItem.Send I get an icon in the mail body like it tried to attach an image which it couldn't find.

When I send that mail from a server, on a server account, the chart is displayed correctly.
It doesn't work when I try to send it on "local" computers.

End Function

I tried to use the Wait function directly after the Send method.

Excellent! I couldn't manage to attach the active workbook into the mail. I tried to add the code .Attachments.Add (ActiveWorkbook.FullName) but didn't work, I received a message saying that the file is in use, and sometimes Runtime error 424 - Object required

With olMail
    .To = "[email protected]"
    '.CC = "xxxx@xxx"
    .Subject = "xxxx"
    .Attachments.Add (ActiveWorkbook.FullName) ' this i added
