    Extract every Complete Name using just the email from Outlook to excel

    Hello,

    I have a column (A) in an excel worksheet with endless e-mail addresses and i need to extract all the names using the outlook app in the column B

    It's possible to create a link and extract all the required data and if the user is no longer available a text should appear to say something like "Not found" ?

    Model :
    A column B column
    E-mails Complete Names after the vba codes?
    [email protected] Testing Person
    [email protected] Testing Person 1
    [email protected] Testing Person 2

    Thank you for your time,
    Alex

    Hi,

    Are you asking whether it's possible to determine whether each email address is still valid?
    If so you could only determine that by sending an email to see if it bounces back as undeliverable and I don't know whether Excel code could be written to do that although there may well be some other script that could.

    I'll be interested to hear if that's the case.

    Not quite,
    The first thing i need to solve is to convert the e-mail addresses from the column A into full names in column B (example the skype for business search) <--- this is the most important thing

    The second thing if that was possible to search the e-mail pop-up someone. <--- not so important
    for the second thing as an example i can give again the skype for business search engine : If an user searches an e-mail address , it returns blank if nothing is found.

    Re the first part. I'm sure that will be possible but I don't understand the rule that gets from A to B.

    i.e. with

    "[email protected]" in say A1 how does that become "Testing Person" in B1? If indeed that's what you want.

    yes , [email protected] is the email, after after the vba code runs , on B1 it should appear "Testing Person"

    So you have a list of names for each email?

    Unless you have a list, for example in your Outlook address book, then there's no way to determine an addressee's name...

    Re: Extract every Complete Name using just the email from Outlook to excel

    But you have no corresponding list (or access to such a list) to derive the actual name... or do you have a suggestion as to where the information can be found?

    I don't know and I don't use Skype so can't say.

    Why don't you do what I would do, search for it. There seems to be a relevant thread on this forum dated 17 Nov 2015 but, as I don't use Skype, I can't comment on it.
