Hi,

I'm new to Outlook programming but really need to do something about
maintaining the size of my Outlook folders, i have a work limit of 65MB.

I would like to create a macro that at the click of a custom button on the
toolbar automatically saves any attachments to a default location using
sender,time&date,and original filename as the new filename. And of course
deleting the attachment in the e-mail. Thus saving space in outlook.

Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction


All help is greatly appreciated
