Default Working with Outlook and Excel from Access

Here is what I want to do:

I have a folder under my Inbox (PPS) which was 50 - 60 e-mails, each e-mail
is a price list for a different supplier held in an Excel Spreadsheet. Each
spreadsheet has the same sort of structure. I want to open Outlook from
Access scroll through each mail item and open the attachment. The purpose is
to load the many price lists into a standard database. I think I can do the
openning of outlook and selection of each mail item, but I don't know how to
open the attachment so that I can work with it.

Any tips or example code would be most welcome.
