Outlook and Excel

[Laura Stevens]

I'm looking for some ideas on how to automate my manual process. I have to
track all emails which are questions and solution into an excel sheet. So
when the emails comes in w/ question I reply back with a solution then copy
and paste into excel. I need a better way to do this? Any ideas. I was
thinking maybe an outlook custom form but then somehow track in access????
I'm not sure anything would be greatly appreciated.

It would certainly be possible to write code to take information from an Outlook item and copy it into an Excel worksheet or into an Access database. If you're averse to writing code, you might want to look at the solutions listed at http://www.slipstick.com/addins/extract.htm
