Ok - I was so excited, I couldn't sleep last night ( by the way, I'm in Australia )
I have an idea - tell me if it's possible.
Is it possible to write a script - that will reply to an email automatically, 7 days after it arrives? ( so on a timer so too speak )
My current weekly sales is...
Diane,
I did the thinking positive thing....... and guess what it worked.
I can't tell you how much I am impressed with your help in spoon-feeding me through creating and implementing these scripts.
Back in July 2013, I explained what I was trying too do - to 1/2 a dozen computer guru...
Here is a screen view
And here is the view of outlook , while I was trying to edit an existing rule that was working... it appears the Select script box is empty
Re Modules... I understand... and loaded a second module.
But now..... something has happened.....
What do I do when my select script box is empty ?
I'm editing my rules and alerts thru Outlook....... and when I go to select my script...... the script box is empty.
Wow... 6 digits
You would think some of them would have left a cheerio :)
I understand the - edit, cut and paste and save - then change from txt to vbs.
But do I just leave that file on the desktop???
Or - does it need to be in a certain directory for outlook and VB to read it??
I made the changes and the script has been working fine since last time we chatted.....
However... I had made the changes to the previous script, which is not working.
Once again I will remind you that I am a novice.
But it appears to me that I can't have 2 scripts loaded at the same...
Great - Sounds easy....... From inside VB I cant find a 'save as" option.
And I'm not sure where the script file is kept.
If I could find it... I'm capable of editing and renaming.
I'm sorry to sound so dumb.....
Diane - I'm back.
I see this forum has had some activity whilst I've been away.
I need some help please.
I have no idea what I'm doing - but you got me thru last time... so you are my guru.
Basically I want to auto reply to an email, by pulling the reply address out of the body of an...
I think I got it to work...... it seems the rule was the problem... not the script.
In the rule I actioned: display a specific message in the NEW Item Alert window.
This worked... however, I think the process halted there.
Once I removed that action the script then ran.... sending my...
I still can't get it yo work... maybe something is wrong with my code
=================================================
Sub SendNew(Item As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim Reg1 As Object
Dim M1 As Object
Dim M As Object
Dim strAddress As String
Set Reg1 = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")...
This was working yesterday ( with my test emails )
I did a reboot..... and now it won't work.
I have the script invoked within a rule in outlook.... all the other features within the same rule work..... email in... move to another folder... sound a wav file... show an alert... but then it...
Thank you Dianne.
I managed to get this working. ( I've never done coding or scripting before ) But I have a Masters in "Copy & Paste" ;)
Only problem I have is: That it is reply to the senders email address ( which is PayPal )
I need it to retrieve the email address from the body of...
