Hello all!

I am using the below code to save all incoming emails as an XML file. The

problem is that a new incoming email overwrites the previous one. What I'd

like to do is name the XML file as the subject line of the incoming email.

Would someone please help me?

Sub saveemail(myItem As Outlook.MailItem)

myItem.SaveAs "c:\mail\test.XML", olXML

End Sub

Matt
 
Never mind...... I was able to do it. In case anyone else need to know how:

Sub saveemail(myItem As Outlook.MailItem)

myItem.SaveAs "c:\mail\" & myItem.Subject & ".xml", olXML

End Sub

Thanks All!

Matt:

You might want to add either ReceivedTime(Emails) or CreationTime(Reports)

Yoru code would look like:

myItem.SaveAs "c:\mail\" & myItem.Subject & "_" & myItem.ReceivedTime &

".xml", olXML

As I have discovered, you may need to scrub the subject and time of any

illegal characters such as "/", ":", or "*" etc.
