Move mail to a folder based on 2 different words in the subject fi

[Alan Kirkham]

When an e-mail arrives that has 2 specific words in the subject field, I
would like the mail to be moved to a personal archive folder. The 2 words are
not next to each other. For example, Subject field is "This is a test mail",
and the 2 words that I want to look for are "This" and "mail".

The script below is one that works if only 1 word is being checked and
renames the subject line.

Sub ChangeSubjectName(MyMail As MailItem)
Dim strID As String
Dim olNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim olMail As Outlook.MailItem

strID = MyMail.EntryID
Set olNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olMail = olNS.GetItemFromID(strID)
' do stuff with olMail, e.g.

If olMail.Subject = "test" Then
olMail.Subject = "whatever you want the subject to be"
olMail.Save
End If

Set olMail = Nothing
Set olNS = Nothing
End Sub

Use multiple InStr expressions to evaluate whether the desired words are
present in the Subject line and continue your logic if they all satisfy your
criteria.

Thank you for your reply Eric. The InStr expression pushed me in the right
direction and I was able to solve my query. Below is the finished script.
Thanks again.
