How do I detach files and include file path in the original email

's Computer Specifications

Using Outlook 2003, Can I create an agent or macro to detach 1 file and
record the file path name within the original email? My company has a 50M
restriction on total Outlook file capacity. I receive lots of attached files
and I keep the detached file on my C:drive. I then copy & paste the file
path name into the original email. eventually I archive the email. Should i
need to go back the original email, ( it happened several times last year) -
I have the spreadsheet or power point file that was orignally attached.
I am looking for an automated way to do this. "Save Attachments" only gets
half the work done. The second half - path name retrieval is what takes the
time.

I'm sure you can write code to do it because there are several companies
that sell programs that do just that. See if this helps:
