Yes you can do it. You need to use an advance search command in
outlook email vba. This requires using a class module to creatte an
evvent to let you know when the search is completed. The body of the
email messages are html so to extract the data I saved the body of each
message as an html file and then opened the file using an Internet
explorer application.

This is code from Excel Class module Class1

Public WithEvents olApp As Outlook.Application
Private m_sch As Outlook.Search
Public Sub AdvSearch(MyScope As String, MyFilter As String, _
ByRef m_sch)
Set m_sch = olApp.AdvancedSearch(MyScope, MyFilter)
End Sub
Private Sub Class_Initialize()
Set Me.olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myNameSpace = Me.olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set myFolder = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
End Sub
Private Sub Class_Terminate()
Set Me.olApp = Nothing
End Sub
Private Sub olApp_AdvancedSearchComplete(ByVal SearchObject As
Outlook.Search)
blnSearchComp = True
End Sub


This is module code in excel
Public blnSearchComp As Boolean
Public g_clsTest As Class1
Sub GetMail()

Const strS As String = "Inbox"
Dim strF As String
Dim sch As Outlook.Search
Dim rsts As Outlook.Results
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, _
ForAppending = 3
Dim TBL As Object

TempPath = Environ("Temp")
FName = TempPath & "\OutlookTMP.HTML"


strF = "urn:schemas:httpmail:" & _
"subject LIKE '%Lock%' AND" & _
"%today(urn:schemas:httpmail:datereceived)%"


blnSearchComp = False
Set g_clsTest = New Class1
g_clsTest.AdvSearch strS, strF, sch


While blnSearchComp = False
DoEvents
Wend

Set rsts = sch.Results
If rsts.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox ("No messages found - Exiting Sub")
Exit Sub
End If
rsts.Sort "ReceivedTime", Descending:=True
Set LatestMess = rsts.Item(1)


Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fout = fs.CreateTextFile _
(FName, True)
fout.Write LatestMess.HTMLBody
fout.Close

'desroy class object
Set g_clsTest = Nothing

'Set IEObj = GetObject(FName)
Set IE = CreateObject("INternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Application.Visible = True
URL = FName
IE.Navigate2 URL
Do While IE.readyState < 4
DoEvents
Loop

Set TBL = IE.document.getelementsbytagname("Table")

'find Net and Gross
'Set statement below causes errors

Set TBLRows = TBL.Item(0).Rows


Set RowOne = TBLRows.Item(0)
Set RowTwo = TBLRows.Item(1)
For i = 0 To (RowOne.Children.Length - 1)
If UCase(RowOne.Children.Item(i).innertext) = "NET" Then
NetCol = i
End If
If UCase(RowOne.Children.Item(i).innertext) = "GROSS" Then
GrossCol = i
End If

Next i
Net = Val(RowTwo.Children.Item(NetCol).innertext)
Gross = Val(RowTwo.Children.Item(GrossCol).innertext)
Total = Net + Gross
ActiveCell.Value = Total

IE.Application.Quit
End Sub
