Default Retrieve data from e-mail attachment

I can write a procedure to retrieve data from a saved file
which the user can select from a file open menu, but is
there a way to have the user open an attachment to an e-
mail and retrieve the data? How do you pause the
procedure execution while the user searches his/her e-mail
and opens the file? How would you error trap if the user
does not open a file? How can I find the file name of the
opened file? (Is it possible to activate another file
before retrieving the data, thereby,
confusing "ActiveWorkbook"?)

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Joe
