This is my first ever question. I want to major in computer science but in the meantime, I kindly ask you for some assistance using VBA Excel.
I receive Outlook emails with the same filename daily (weekdays); I want to program VBA Excel to open the Outlook attachments that I receive during the night before.
So, really two things:
I have written the below code but need to open excel workbook from Outlook, not C drive :
Sub Test()
Dim WB As Workbook 'designate variables
Dim sSaveFileName As String
sSaveFileName = Format(Now() - 1, "MM-DD-YYYY") 'save as received date,
yesterday
' not needed >>>>> 'Set WB =
Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\nader\OneDrive\Documents\openthisexcel.xlsx")
Windows("openthisexcel.xlsx").Activate 'activate opened excel attachment
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("A1:A50").Select
Selection.Copy 'select range and copy
Windows("macroExcel.xlsm").Activate 'activate xlsm template (another
workbook)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("A1:A50").Select
Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats
Application.CutCopyMode = False 'select range
and paste from one excel to another
WB.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:\Users\nader\OneDrive\Documents\openthisexcel.xlsx" &
sSaveFileName & ".xlsx" 'save received excel using filename and
the date it was received in Outlook
WB.Close 'close the excel attachment
End Sub
Please provide some assistance to open Excel attachment from folder and how to delete the email (including Excel attachment) in Outlook using VBA.
I read some Stack Overflow posts , but couldn't understand them (just a beginner here).
Look at Download attachment from Outlook and Open in Excel . This does what you want from Excel.
However, you have another option, that is, to write an Outlook macro instead. See Running Outlook Macros on a Schedule . With this, you would be able to run your macro automatically daily in Outlook (as long as Outlook is opened) to extract your data. The content of the macro would be essentially the same as the one in the first link.
