[excel] How to copy Outlook mail message into excel using VBA or Macros

Since you have not mentioned what needs to be copied, I have left that section empty in the code below.

Also you don't need to move the email to the folder first and then run the macro in that folder. You can run the macro on the incoming mail and then move it to the folder at the same time.

This will get you started. I have commented the code so that you will not face any problem understanding it.

First paste the below mentioned code in the outlook module.

Then

1. Click on Tools~~>Rules and Alerts
2. Click on "New Rule"
3. Click on "start from a blank rule"
4. Select "Check messages When they arrive"
5. Under conditions, click on "with specific words in the subject"
6. Click on "specific words" under rules description.
7. Type the word that you want to check in the dialog box that pops up and click on "add".
8. Click "Ok" and click next
9. Select "move it to specified folder" and also select "run a script" in the same box
10. In the box below, specify the specific folder and also the script (the macro that you have in module) to run.
11. Click on finish and you are done.

When the new email arrives not only will the email move to the folder that you specify but data from it will be exported to Excel as well.

    Set oXLws = oXLwb.Sheets("Sheet1")

    lRow = oXLws.Range("A" & oXLApp.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1

To extract the contents from your email body, you can split it using SPLIT() and then parsing out the relevant information from it. See this example

Dim MyAr() As String

MyAr = Split(olMail.body, vbCrLf)

For i = LBound(MyAr) To UBound(MyAr)
    '~~> This will give you the contents of your email
    '~~> on separate lines
    Debug.Print MyAr(i)
Next i
