Newbie - Save As Many Messages at Once
 

Hi guys,

I am kind of new to Outlook.

I would like to know of any fast shortcut (for Save as) or a Macro? I work in a NGO and due to the Haiti crisis we recive like 500 emails at day. I have to save each one them and ONE BY ONE that says Donations (not all emails says donation).

I would like to know if there is any way i can select a bunch of emails and save them all at once to my disk location not having to do it one by one.

Any help or ideas,

Cheers,
S

You can drag and drop the messages out of Outlook and into an Explorer
folder to save them as individual msg-file.

Any particluar reason why you want to save these items outside of Outlook?
If mailbox space is an issue, then you can also move them to a separate
pst-file. To create a pst-file use;
File- New- Outlook Data File...

For next time; Don't multipost but crosspost instead.

Do you want them saved as messages (msg) or another format? If you want a
single text file, you can select all, file, save as.

Hi,

Actually in this NGO they save each message as "Save As" .html format. What i would like to do is save them as .html file but a whole bunch at the same time, not one by one which is very slow.

By the way, what is the difference between .msg and .html?

Thanks and cheers,
S

MSG is the native outlook format, HTML is web page format.

If you want to save a lot of messages at once, you'll need to use VBA (see
outlookcode.com) or a utility. There is a list of utilities at
http://www.slipstick.com/AddIns/housekeeping.asp - HTML Archiver works well
but there are others listed there.
