Attatchment detach issues VB-Help
 

hi peeps thanks before hand for any help you can give,

i found this code on a website that pulls the attatchments off of the emails
and stores them into a specified folder. its brilliant except for a few tiny
gltches i have found.

1. All the emails are not being processed (i put a count in along with a
messagebox to check, i put 12 emails into the folder with only xls files but
ony 7 get transfered)
2. if the email hs multilple attatchments it only takes one

can anyone help with this? i have put below the code

thanks again

Rivers

For Each Item In SubFolder.Items
For Each Atmt In Item.Attachments
sel = SubFolder.Items.Count
MsgBox sel

If Right(Atmt.FileName, 3) = "xls" Then

FileName = "C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\Email
Attachments\" & Atmt.FileName
Atmt.SaveAsFile FileName
Item.Move otherInbox.Folders("Flash Processed")
i = i + 1
End If
Next Atmt
Next Item

That code moves the item after processing the first attachment, so no others
can be processed. Also, in any loop where you're moving/deleting items from
a collection you should use a count down for loop, not for...each. The Items
collection count is changing as you move items so a for...each will process
only half the items in a collection:

For i = SubFolder.Items.Count To 1 Step -1

ok ken being as though it was down to my thnking on my last query that caused
the problem in the first lace is this what you meant?
For Each Item In SubFolder.Items
For Each Atmt In Item.Attachments

If Right(Atmt.FileName, 3) = "xls" Then
FileName = "\\ Flash Recieved\" & Atmt.FileName
Atmt.SaveAsFile FileName
i = i + 1
End If
Next Atmt
Next Item

For Each Item In SubFolder.Items
Item.Move otherInbox.Folders("Flash Processed")
Next Item

however my attatchments all copy across but when it comes to my for lop to
move my items to a new folder it completes half then stops??

thanks before hand

thanks anyway figured it out needed a do loop wit a for statement

Do Until itemcheck = True
If SubFolder.Items.Count 0 Then
For Each Item In SubFolder.Items
Item.Move otherInbox.Folders("Flash Processed")
Next Item
Else
itemcheck = True
End If
Loop

works perfectly

You're still better off using the count down For loop I showed rather than a
For...Each loop. That's best practice when moving or deleting items from a
collection.

Dim iCount As Long
iCount = SubFolder.Items.Count

Dim i As Long

For i = iCount To 1 Step -1
Item.Move otherInbox.Folders("Flash Processed")
Next

Also, Move is a function and returns an object reference to the newly moved
item. Often things work better when you get the returned object, even as a
throw-away item object that isn't used.

Not without seeing the code as it stands now, and not without knowing what
line causes the error.
