Daily I receive approx 100 emails. I have to open them individually
and verify that this line is present Description: Successful If it is present, I delete the email. I think I should be able to do this programmatically, looping thru all the emails in the collection and maybe doing a ctrl/find to locate the text string and if it is present, close (maybe I don't have to close it first?) and then delete the email. If the string is not present, close the email and goto the next one without deleting. I am a bit familiar with VBA in Word but rather outside my league here in Outlook. Here is my best guess on how to approach this and at least get started: Public Sub Deletions() Dim obj As Object Dim Items As Outlook.MailItem Set Items = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox ).Items For Each obj In Items Selection.Find.ClearFormatting With Selection.Find .Text = "Description: Successful" here I think I need an if then statement saying if the string is present, delete the item, if not close the item only I can't think through it enough to figure out how to tell the program that the text is indeed there (or not!) End With Next End Sub Would it be best to put the code to do this in the 'ThisOutlookSession' Module? I've never used the module and am not at all sure when it should be used as verses just creating a new module. Could someone please help me out with this. I sure appreciate your time and expertise. I have spent the morning reading through this group and that is how I came up with this 'best guess' of mine on how to do this task. This newsgroup is chuck full of great info. Good job and thanks a million. I love that you give us web sites to visit and try to find the answers to our problems. While I wait for a response to my inquiry I am going to go to Sue Mosher's site and check it out. Joanne |
