    save an outlook attachment from an email with the subject "x" to hard drive

    Good morning,
    I've been trying this for a while and cannot get any code to work correctly. I am trying to find a code that will automatically save an outlook attachment from an email with the subject "x" to hard drive folder "y" . The code should do it automatically whenever a message is received.

    Thank you so much if you can help!!

    Jared

    1) Posting Code
    [CODE]PasteYourCodeHere[/CODE]
    (or paste your code, select it, click # button)

    2) Uploading File(s)
    Go Advanced / Attachments - Manage Attachments / Add Files / Select Files / Select the file(s) (multiple files can be selected while holding Ctrl key) / Upload Files / Done
    Replace company specific / sensitive / confidential data. Include so many rows and sheets etc in the uploaded workbook to enable the helpers visualize the data and table structure. Helpers do not need the entire workbook.

    3) Testing the Codes
    always back up your files before testing the codes.
