auto rcvd email retrieval

Jim Shores

Hi,
3 mos. new to this world, after a ten-year hiatus, this AM, for, starters, I'm adding a disconnected table to a burgeoning contractor's .mdb.
tblMyControlNumbers shall be keyed with a string I can find in the Author property of some .docs and maybe .xls's and it looks like this: "Jim Shores_1040000, Jim Shores_1040001, _1040003, and so forth and so on.
Well, yesterday, there was a online order-form field at some mail-order house that called for a .Purchase Order Number'. Which means I have recieved a email with "Jim Shores_1040029" in its body.
How can I paste into a field in my .mdb a reference to that received email that, I guess may eventually be archived? This may be a dumb question. But me making a note in a .mdb memo field, "it's in that Outlook thing somewhere," strikes me as too clumsy to bother
