Working with Word attachments

R

Richard Conway

Hi there, I carry out a process every day that takes me ages and I'm sure I
can automate at least part of it. I've never really delved into Macros in
the past but am generally pretty decent at coding and have used VB quite a
bit. I just want some general feedback and ideas about weather what I want
to do is possible and a guidance on how it would be done.

The steps required would be as follows:

- Go through messages in an Outlook folder one at a time
- check each message and see if it has a word attachment
- if it has, open the word document, then copy the body text of the email
and paste it as a new page at the start of the word document.
- Save the word document
- Close the word document
- Move the original mail message into a different mail folder

Any hints, tips, suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks,
Richard.
