The macro I posted will simply increment the number of the file being downloaded as the messages arrive. If the messages are processed as they arrive then presumably they will carry the latest version and if the filename is the same it should be safe to save the attachment overwriting the existing file, instead of incrementing it.



The existing messages are a bit more of an issue. I'll have to think about that a bit more. However, if they are all in the same Outlook folder then all it should take is to sort the folder by date and time of arrival and process the files in reverse order (or conversely sort them in reverse order and process the files in the sorted order).

Would that work for you?

Hello Graham,

You are very helpful.

As I will be running this command once only for each folder I have then the simplest way, as you suggested, is to get Outlook to work its way down the list from oldest first, and replacing as it goes. This would ensure I end up with the newest PDFs for each filename.

Then, once I have it all run, all future emails will be instantly uploaded and older PDFs replaced accordingly.

Hopefully I am not being rude in asking if you could edit my original command posted to do this so I could paste it back into the editor?

Regards,
Terry.

I haven't got time today, but I'll modify it for you tomorrow, if no-one else picks it up overnight.
