Outlook rules

OK, I have a problem to solve... everyday I receive an email from the same sender with an excel spreadsheet attached. I do not need to read them everyday but want to save the spreadsheet to my network drive.

Is there a way using rules to strip the attachment off the email and save it to a network drive?

I can see how to do it via autoarchive (which will mean i have to view it from an archive folder rather than go to the folder and open the relevant spreadsheet directly). I cant see a way in rules. Am i missing something can you think of another way?

Is there an other way?

thanks

RE: Outlook rules

Hi Jane

There isn't a rule to strip the attachment from the email and save it on a network drive.

The only way I can see to solve this is to write VBA code that opens the specified message and moves the attachment to the network drive.

Outlook tip:

Emptying mail bin when exiting Outlook 2010

If you prefer not to have hundred's of messages pile up in your Deleted Items folder in Outlook 2010, click on the File menu, then Options, then click Advanced, find the Outlook Start and Exit section. Check the box next to Empty Deleted Items folder when exiting Outlook.
