Macro to copy and paste from Excel to Outlook

Hi,

Is it possible to run a macro in Excel that will copy data on a sheet and paste it in the body of an Outlook email? I know that by clicking an email address link in Excel it will open a new Outlook email message. I would like to then paste copied data from Excel. Both programs are Microsoft Office but is this possible?

I actually do that all the time with no special preparation.

1) Highlight some cells and CTRL-C to copy them.
2) Click on email link to open a blank email
3) Click in the body of the email
4) Press CTRL-V to paste the selection from Excel.
