some thoughts

Ever get an email with 24 pictures attached?

Now you can click a button and save them all to the directory of your choice AND remove them from your inbox. This little VBA code will save the pictures to the directory you choose, remove the pictures from the email, append a permanent link to the body of the email to the location of each picture on your hard drive (for later reference), and attach a very small blank text file to the email (for a complicated reason which I won’t go into.) The code works on multiple emails, but you’ll have to select the directory for each selected email. (If this is a problem, let me know, and I’ll change it for you.)

This is not reversible, so be careful about which directory you move your pictures to. The directory must be made prior to moving the pictures.

To do this:
1. Paste the code from saveandstrippics.txt into an Outlook code module and hit CTRL-S to save it.
2. Select the email(s) from which you want to save and strip the pictures.
3. Tools–>Modules…–>SaveAndStripPics.

Enjoy!
