Hi Team,

Im using below VBA code to extract emails from outlook. However, it extracts all emails. I want the code to extract only specific emails with below subjects. For the last 2 emails the timing keeps changing on the email but rest remains same until 28 characters

View attachment 82619MIKONSbarphone- GP hub Status
GPRS System Availability ETA - 08:58
GPRS System Availability ETA - 08:38

Whenever i run the macro it should extract the current days email and paste in the excel and when i run the macro next day it should paste the data from the following row and retain the existing data

On Sunday we get only this email View attachment 82619MIKONSbarphone- GP hub Status

When i run the macro on Monday it should extract the data for Saturday, Sunday & Monday because we dont work on weekends.

Also please note the data should be pasted in sequence based on the date and time. The current code which im using doesnt do that

Thanks in advance for your help

VBA Code:
Option Explicit

  ' get contacts
  results = ExportEmails(True)

  ' paste onto worksheet
  Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(UBound(results), UBound(results, 2))).Value = results

    MsgBox "Completed"
End Sub

Function ExportEmails(Optional headerRow As Boolean = False) As String()

      tempString(i + startRow, 3) = .Subject
      'tempString(i + startRow, 4) = Left$(.Body, 200)  ' throws error without limit
      'tempString(i + startRow, 5) = .SenderEmailAddress
      'tempString(i + startRow, 6) = .SentOn


    End With

    If msg.Attachments.Count > 50 Then

        For jAttach = 1 To msg.Attachments.Count
            tempString(i + startRow, 39 + jAttach) = msg.Attachments.Item(jAttach).DisplayName
        Next jAttach

    End If

  Next i

  ' first row of array should be header values
  If headerRow Then


    tempString(1, 1) = "SenderName"
    tempString(1, 2) = "ReceivedTime"
    tempString(1, 3) = "subject"
    'tempString(1, 4) = "Body"
    'tempString(1, 5) = "SenderEmailAddress"
    'tempString(1, 6) = "SentOn"

      End If

  ExportEmails = tempString

  ' apply pane freeze and filtering

    Range("A2").Select
    ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = True
    Rows("1:1").Select
    'Selection.AutoFilter

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
I probably cannot help with your actual question, but a few suggestions that might help you get other people to help.

  1. Regarding the 'Urgent' component of your thread title. I suggest that you refer to g. and h. of point 5 in the Guidelines
  2. I suggest that you update your Account details (click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)
  3. When posting vba code in the forum, please use the available code tags. It makes your code much easier to read/debug & copy. My signature block below has more details. I have added the tags for you this time. 😊
