Can I iterate through all Outlook emails in a folder including sub-folders?
I have a folder which contains a number of emails and sub-folders. Within those sub-folders are more emails.
I'd like to write some VBA which will iterate through all emails in a certain folder, including those in any of the sub-folders. The 开发者_运维百科idea is to extract the SenderEmailAddress
and SenderName
from every email and do something with it.
I've tried just exporting the folder as CSV with only these two fields and whilst this works, it doesn't support exporting emails held in sub-folders. Hence the need to write some VBA.
Before I go re-inventing the wheel, does anyone have any code snippets or links to sites which, given a folder name, shows how to get a MailItem
object for every email in that folder and subsequent sub-folders?
Something like this ...
Private Sub processFolder(ByVal oParent As Outlook.MAPIFolder)
Dim oFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem
For Each oMail In oParent.Items
'Get your data here ...
Next
If (oParent.Folders.Count > 0) Then
For Each oFolder In oParent.Folders
processFolder oFolder
Next
End If
End Sub
This has a lot of great code that you are interested in. Go run it in Outlook/VBA as a macro.
Const MACRO_NAME = "OST2XLS"
Dim excApp As Object, _
excWkb As Object, _
excWks As Object, _
intVersion As Integer, _
intMessages As Integer, _
lngRow As Long
Sub ExportMessagesToExcel()
Dim strFilename As String, olkSto As Outlook.Store
strFilename = InputBox("Enter a filename (including path) to save the exported messages to.", MACRO_NAME)
If strFilename <> "" Then
intMessages = 0
intVersion = GetOutlookVersion()
Set excApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set excWkb = excApp.Workbooks.Add
For Each olkSto In Session.Stores
Set excWks = excWkb.Worksheets.Add()
excWks.Name = "Output1"
'Write Excel Column Headers

End With

Next
excWkb.SaveAs strFilename
End If
