Hello - I am resonably versed in VBA but mostly for Access and Excel -
I am just starting to dabble in Outlook macros to automate stuff for
users.

Here's the latest I am trying to get done (and obviously would love
code suggestions for...)

1. Email comes in for order information

Example follows:
==================================================
Store ID: westwayeshop

3. Now - I want to add some of my own text above and or below this text

4. Write something in the Subject Line - Like "Purchase Order
request...."

5. Pop open the Address book and default to addresses starting with
"Supplier - *"

6. After send then move to folder (this I may get done with a rule)...

NOTES -
- There may be multiple lines of products listing in the original
email
- The email comes formatted as plain text

Any help with this or even parts of this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

John, the e-mail´s Body property contains that string.

With the InStr function you can find e.g. the start of "Billing Address" or
"Customer Name:". You then need to find the line´s end, which are usually
the vbCRLF characters. Given both the positions you can user the Mid
function to get that part of the string.

Thank you Michael - can you look at the rest of the problem (the call
or popup of the address book)... any code snippets to help me get
started? I just need a little nudge on this one...

Thanks.

You´ll find samples for the mentioned functions in the VBA help.

3. Adding text above:

Body = "text" & vbCRLF & Body

or below:

Body = Body & vbCRLF & "text"

4. Write into the item´s Subject property.

5. You can´t default any addresses in the Address Book. You can use
Comandbar techniques (http://www.outlookcode.com/d/tips/commandbarfun.htm)
to open it. The button´s ID is 353.

6. You can set the SaveSentMessageFolder property.

Again Michael thank you - what about a sample for extracting or parsing
text within the body of the email?

Have a great day.
