Copy Outlook email body to Excel

A

AlexCS

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to write a macro in Excel to achieve the following:
- search for an item with a particular subject in the Outlook inbo
(there will always be only one item to match the search criteria sinc
the items are deleted after being processed)
- open that particular item and copy its body to a designated Exce
spreadsheet
-delete the item

So far, the closest I have come to my objective is with the below code
My problem is that it ends up pasting the entire body of the email i
one single cell in Excel (it would not accept pasting in a range) an
there is no possibility for me to format the data afterwards.

Please help if you have a minute, I honestly don't know what else t
try.

Many thanks,

Alex

Sub Outlook_Final()

Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

Dim olNs As Outlook.Namespace
Dim Fldr As Outlook.MAPIFolder

Set olApp = New Outlook.Application
Set olNs = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set Fldr = olNs.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)

For Each Item In Fldr.Items
If InStr(Item.Subject, "MACRO VAX 48634 REPORT") 0 Then
Item.Display
vBody = Item.Body
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = vBody
Item.Delete
End If
Next Item

End Su

Where else do you want the macro to paste the email body text?
