So i have these 2 macros codes that work separately (if i delete one and keep the other):

This one is to save incoming messages automatically as they come in.

Code:
Option Explicit
Private WithEvents Items As Outlook.Items

Private Sub Application_Startup()
  Dim Ns As Outlook.NameSpace
  Set Ns = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
  Set Items = Ns.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Items
End Sub

Private Sub Items_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
  If TypeOf Item Is Outlook.MailItem Then
  
  Dim sPath As String
  Dim dtDate As Date
  Dim sName As String
  Dim enviro As String
 
  enviro = CStr(Environ("USERPROFILE"))
   
  sName = Item.Subject
  ReplaceCharsForFileName sName, "_"
 
  dtDate = Item.ReceivedTime
  sName = Format(dtDate, "yyyymmdd", vbUseSystemDayOfWeek, _
    vbUseSystem) & Format(dtDate, "-hhnnss", _
    vbUseSystemDayOfWeek, vbUseSystem) & "-" & sName & ".msg"
     
' use My Documents for older Windows.
    sPath = enviro & "\Documents\"
  Debug.Print sPath & sName
  Item.SaveAs sPath & sName, olMSG
  
  End If
  
End Sub

Private Sub ReplaceCharsForFileName(sName As String, _
  sChr As String _
)
  sName = Replace(sName, "/", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "\", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, ":", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "?", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, Chr(34), sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "<", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, ">", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "|", sChr)
End Sub

This one is to save outgoing messages as they are sent:

Code:
Private WithEvents objSentItems As Items
Private Sub Application_Startup()
Dim objSent As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Set objNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objSentItems = objNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderSentMail).Items
Set objNS = Nothing
End Sub
 
Private Sub objSentItems_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
  Dim sPath As String
  Dim dtDate As Date
  Dim sName As String
  Dim enviro As String
 
enviro = CStr(Environ("USERPROFILE"))
   
  sName = Item.Subject
  ReplaceCharsForFileName sName, "-"
 
  dtDate = Item.ReceivedTime
  sName = Format(dtDate, "yyyymmdd", vbUseSystemDayOfWeek, _
    vbUseSystem) & Format(dtDate, "-hhnnss", _
    vbUseSystemDayOfWeek, vbUseSystem) & "-" & sName & ".msg"
     
    sPath = enviro & "\Documents\"
  Debug.Print sPath & sName
  Item.SaveAs sPath & sName, olMSG
End Sub

Private Sub ReplaceCharsForFileName(sName As String, _
  sChr As String _
)
  sName = Replace(sName, "/", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "\", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, ":", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "?", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, Chr(34), sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "<", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, ">", sChr)
  sName = Replace(sName, "|", sChr)
End Sub

My question is, how would i combine these 2 so that incoming and outgoing messages are saved? When i try running these both it gives me an error that i can't have 2 "private withevents"

So is there a way to combine these 2 so at start up of outlook they both work?
