Hi,
Sorry that this is such a blatant cry for help, but that's what it is!
I have hundreds of folders with names following the same format - prefix SFxxxx - Label name. So SF1234 - Project1, SF1235 - Project2 and so on. Hundreds of them.
These folders have Emails in them. Sometimes less than 10, sometimes less than 100.
I want to assign the category of all Emails under each folder, with the prefix of the folder name - so SFxxxx (left most 6 characters of folder name will work)
I have never done Outlook VBA - ever. But have done Excel numerous times.
Can anyone help tell me where to start? Like how to assign categories and recurse folders to do so on every item in each folder?
Huge thanks in advance for any help as I have to do this manually otherwise.
Alan
