I was directed to this site, but I don't know anything about programming, I
apologize. I put the macro on the toolbar but it does not show any macros are
created. That is my point, I have to create a macro and then I can run it
from the toolbar, but don't know how to creat a macro in Outlook b/c there is
no avenue to do it.
I unfortunatley do not understand the "sub runrulemyrule()" stuff, I am sorry

Why does only this rule not run? all the others run and I set them up the
same way, it runs manually, but not automatically.

Customize the toolbar where you want the macro button and select the macro
from the Macros collection in the customize dialog. It will be in the
Commands tab under the Macros group. Drag it to where you want it. While in
customize you can click your new button and change the name and other
settings.

I created a rule in Outlook 2007 for e-mails that have certain words in the
subject line, to be deleted. I have checked the rule and made it first
but
it does not run. I have to run it manually but clicking tools, rules and
alerts, run rules, etc. This is pain to do. All my other rules run with
no
problem, this is the only one that does not run.
So I thought I would make a macro on the toolbar and then just click on
that
and not have to click on tools, rules, etc.
How do I do that?
