    Extracting email chain email address and converting to Excel column

    Hello,

    I am hoping there is a macro or rule to help me.

    What I have is a extremely long list of email address from an Outlook email and I need to transfer them to an Excel column so I can export. If I paste the copied emails into Excel it combines them all into one massive cell.
    From there I am not sure how to record a Macro or rule that will successfully record and transfer the data I want from the cell. I hope this makes sense - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I will have to continue doing it by copy and paste.

    Thank you so much in advance!

    have you tried using text-to-columns to at least make a start at breaking them up?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I presume there is a common separator between each email address in the list? Therefore you could use the "text to columns" option and then transpose the row into a column.
