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.
