Hi Everyone,

I have a set of PST files from various mailboxes, the pst files each contain a lot of email. I need to create a new pst file for each one, that contains only the mail from a specific date range. Doing this by hand will take forever... does anyone have any tip son how to do it with VBA code. I have some experience in vba, but don't know where to start with this project?

So to illustrate I have a kevin.pst file that contains mail for the past 5 years. I need to create a kevin1.pst file that contains the mail from the first, but only for the date range 01/01/2012 to 12/31/2012

Any help gratefully appreciated!

best,

Kevin.

There is a non programming method. Manually archive mail older than 01/01/2012 to kevin0.pst. Then manually archive mail older than 01/01/2013 to kevin1.pst.
