I am not familiar with vba enough to modify this for my needs.
I need to download the attachments from a specific folder.
I found this example, but I am not su
Code goes under ThisOutlookSession
Update folder Name "Temp"
Private WithEvents Items As Outlook.Items
Private Sub Application_Startup()
Dim olNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim olFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Set olNameSpace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olFolder = olNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Folders("TEMP")
Set Items = olFolder.Items
End Sub
Private Sub Items_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
If TypeOf Item Is Outlook.MailItem Then
SaveAttachments Item
End If
End Sub
'// http://www.slipstick.com/developer/save-attachments-to-the-hard-drive/
Public Sub SaveAttachments(Item As Outlook.MailItem)
If Item.Attachments.Count > 0 Then
Dim objAttachments As Outlook.Attachments
Dim lngCount As Long
Dim strFile As String
Dim sFileType As String
Dim i As Long
Set objAttachments = Item.Attachments
lngCount = objAttachments.Count
For i = lngCount To 1 Step -1
' Get the file name.
strFile = objAttachments.Item(i).FileName
' Get the path to your My Documents folder
strFolderpath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SpecialFolders(16)
strFolderpath = strFolderpath & "\Attachments\"
' Combine with the path to the folder.
strFile = strFolderpath & strFile
' Save the attachment as a file.
objAttachments.Item(i).SaveAsFile strFile
Next i
End If
End Sub
To open a folder on the same level as your Inbox, open Inbox, then go one level up to its parent, then retrieve your folder by name:
set MyFolder = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Parent.Folders.Item("My Folder Name")
