All, I do realize this is an Excel forum and I am asking an Outlook question. I have posted here because I found a similar post on this forum that sort of does what I want. That link is here: http://www.excelforum.com/outlook-pr...n-outlook.html

I am looking to do the following:

1. When I want to save an email (both the body and any/all associated attachments), I assign the email to a pre-designated category ... say a category named "EDUCATION" assigned the color Blue.
2. This prompts a macro to run that saves the categorized email (again, body an associated attachments) to a specified folder on my hard drive.
3. The saved body would be a .txt file.

Any ideas how the linked script might be modified to do what I want?
If you feel that the linked script is no good for this application, that's cool, too.
