Email export - I need to have fields that do not map

[Guest]

I wish to export my Outlook 2003 email .pst to a table format such as excel.
The custom map fields function does not inlude some information fields that I
need - date of message, attachment to message (name and size), date of
reply/message thread etc.

I have tried all the various export options such as tab, comma in
windows/dos - excel, access etc.. basically all the exports have the same
custom mapping options.

Is there any way to gain the extra information I need to get the additonal
fields mapped and output to excel (or anything else)

You can't change the fields available for export. However, if you use Access to set up a linked table connected to your mail folder, you will see the Received date among the available properties. Third-party export tools are also available; see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm#tools

Since Attachments is a collection, not a field with a single value, you will probably need to either use a third-party tool or write your own with VBA.
