Saving Outlook Messages to Individual Text FilesDoes anyone know how to export individual messages in Outlook to text files.
Maybe a macro, which I don't know how to make, that will include date, from, subject, body of message. The export options in Outlook do not work for this. Neither does saving the messages as a text file. I want them saved individually. Can anyone help, or point me in the right direction. I've checked on Slipstick but haven't found anything there that does what I want.

I looked at your program and it may or not work for my purpose but I didn't see a demo and hesitate to buy a program when I'm not sure it's what I want. Thanks anyway. Nothing found on SlipStick.
