Simple script to save attachments in outlook

[Eric Jackson]

Does anyone have a simple example of a script that i can use to save
attachments in outlook.

I am going to use the rules wizard to run the script when the email
contains a certain password in the subject line.

The folder where the email is called- Distributed Model

the location to save the attachments is

L:\Docs\Distributed_Model\Submit

Any help or suggestions?

Show the declaration for your procedure. A procedure intended for use with a
rule needs to be a Public Sub with a MailItem or MeetingItem argument.

I got it to work!!
However, i can't seem to get it to work at my office.
@ home i got it to run fine using outlook.

However, at work, we have exchange and maybe some other layers of
security not allowing scripts to run.

Any suggestions on what to do.
I tried to run a script using a batch file, but haven't been succesfull.
