Thanks in advance for you help.

Title says it all.

I have an email I receive in outlook every day. It's called "Report 01/14/2016". The date changes daily.

Within the email are two excel attachments. The one I need is called "Detail 0114". The date changes daily.

I would like outlook to automatically open this attachment in excel and run a macro I have written.

The macro I have already written is saved as an Excel add-in on a shared drive. This new macro would need to reference it there.

Any ideas how to do this best?

Thank you.

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
