Dick,

The "retrieving EMail" code worked great for me with XP.

How should I change the "olMail.ReceivedTime" in the line

ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value = olMail.ReceivedTime

to copy the whole body of the email.

TIA

Ron

Ron

ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value = olMail.Body

will copy the entire body of the email into that cell. I don't know if
there are limits on how much text you can bring over.

Dick,




The email code also worked fine for me...

Except I want the email body not in 1 cell, but I want to have each
line of the body in a different row. Is that possible?

Thanks

The Body property is just a string, so you can manipulate it like any other
stirng. Here's an example

Sub emaillines()

Dim ol As Outlook.Application
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim fldr As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim mi As Outlook.MailItem
Dim stBody As String
Dim LineBreak As Long
Dim i As Long

Set ol = New Outlook.Application
Set ns = ol.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set fldr = ns.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set mi = fldr.Items(78)

stBody = mi.Body
LineBreak = 1
i = 1

Do
ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value = _
Mid(stBody, LineBreak, InStr(LineBreak, stBody, Chr(10)) -
LineBreak)
LineBreak = InStr(LineBreak + 1, stBody, Chr(10)) + 1
i = i + 1
Loop Until LineBreak = 0 Or LineBreak Len(stBody)

End Sub

Dick,

In XP and with the body of the email in cell "AI" I tried the
"emaillines" sub but ran into "Run-time error '-2147352567
(80020009)':

Array index out of bounds."

How to fix please.

TIA

Ron

Ron

On which line?

If it was this one

Set mi = fldr.Items(78)

then you may not have 78 emails in your inbox. You need to set mi equal to
the email that you want. For tips on this see

http://www.dicks-clicks.com/excel/olRetrieving.htm

This sub takes the body from the email and parses into lines on a sheet.
Having the body in A1, doesn't matter, because it's not taking the body from
the worksheet, rather, straight from the email.

Post back if that doesn't answer your question.
