Ever day at 12 am there is an automatic email with an excel attachment from a vendor service with a specific subject. I am using rules and code to attempt to save the attachment and insert the information into a database I have created upon being received in the inbox.
I have tried code that I have found online however I don't know if doesn't work because of some network/ security setting my company has or if its he code it self.
Rule:
CODE:
Public Sub CribMaster2Database(itm As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim objAtt As Outlook.Attachment
Dim saveFolder As String
saveFolder = "c:\temp\"
If olItem.Subject = "Test" Then
For Each objAtt In itm.Attachments
objAtt.SaveAsFile saveFolder & "\" & objAtt.DisplayName
Set objAtt = Nothing
Next
End If
End Sub
Add code to the ThisOutlookSession
to watch your folder for arrivals.
CribMaster_ItemAdd
fires whenever something arrives in your watched folder.
At the very top of the module:
Dim WithEvents CribMaster As Items
Const SAVE_PATH As String = "c:\temp\"
Private Sub Application_Startup()
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace
Set ns = GetNamespace("MAPI")
'Change `holi4683` to the name of your account
'(should be visible just above your inbox).
Set CribMaster = ns.Folders.Item("holi4683") _
.Folders.Item("Inbox").Items
End Sub
Sub CribMaster_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
Dim olAtt As Attachment
Dim i As Integer
With Item
For i = 1 To .Attachments.Count
Set olAtt = .Attachments(i)
olAtt.SaveAsFile SAVE_PATH & olAtt.DisplayName
.UnRead = False
DoEvents
Next i
End With
Set olAtt = Nothing
End Sub
I'd usually use a rule to move the emails to a subfolder and watch that folder - means I don't have to worry about meeting invites, etc.
To do this you'd change your watched folder like this:
Set CribMaster = ns.Folders.Item("holi4683") _
.Folders.Item("Inbox") _
.Folders.Item("SubFolder").Items
Restart Outlook for the code to work, or manually run the Application_Startup()
procedure.
