Extracting outlook email metadata
Hi All,
I am very new to outlook (not as a user, but as a programmer). My project requires extraction of metadata from Outlook emails. Something like 1.Take a separate msg file (or PST file) 2.Load the file into outlook (or without loading also) 3.Find the metadata of that email, something like To,CC,BCC,Created time, (Whether that email has) attachments etc. How to do this? Is it possible to do this using VB.net or simple VBA? If yes, can any one of you please provide high level plan (approach to the problem)? Thanks a lot. Regards Gokul |

There are third party tools available. If you are interested in prgramming then try the Outlook Library.

If you find a better answer or can convert this info into something that a nonprogrammer like me could figure out how to use, I'd be very grateful. |

See VBA here. http://www.gregthatcher.com/
For example: Outlook VBA Script that gets info on currently selected email using the Outlook Object Model http://www.gregthatcher.com/Scripts/...EmailInfo.aspx Outlook VBA Script that gets info on Attachments in currently selected email http://www.gregthatcher.com/Scripts/...tachments.aspx If you are unfamiliar with VBA see here http://www.slipstick.com/developer/h...ks-vba-editor/ You will find information about: - macro security settings - where to put the code - how to create a button ******************* Consider rating the thread by going to the "Rate Thread" dropdown. |
