How do I achieve auto reply with numbering in Outlook Please help!!
Hello All
Sorry this is my first question on this board. i commented on another question but thought it better to ask here instead.
scenario:
i know little or nothing about VB script :(
but i have been looking for this solution for a while :) Message auto-numbering in Outlook
i am using Microsoft outlook 2010 on windows 7.
could you tell me what i need to do to implement this code or guide me to literature that would help??
i want to auto reply to every email sent to a specific email account with a some default text plus a consecutive number in the subject and some default text and the same number in the message.
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance

Hi, Ot_Gu.
That looks like something I wrote. Do you need the consecutive numbers to continue across sessions, or do you want them just within the current session?

Morning, BlueDevilFan, apologies for belated reply.
By "sessions" I assume you refer to each time I start Outlook? If so then yes; I require the numbers to continue across sessions. Incidentally the numbering needs to start at 5700.
Thanks for your help.

Many, Many thanks.
That worked first time. I think I am comfortable with editing the autoreply sub to get it looking how i want so that is really good.
Thanks again and have a good weekend BlueDevilFan.

Thanks and you're welcome!
I want to create a rule which applies to all mail received through the specified account, then run a script. I found the below code elsewhere in the forum, which is on the way to my solution, in that this would create the reply with my subject & text. So i just need to include the auto numbering now with your help.
thanks//Ot_Gu
Sub AutoReply(Item As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim olkReply As Outlook.MailItem
Set olkReply = Item.Reply
With olkReply
'Change the subject on the next line as desired'
.Subject = Item.Subject
'Change the body as desired'
.HTMLBody = "Your reply text goes here.<bt><br>" & olkReply.HTMLBody
.Send
End With
Set olkReply = Nothing
End Sub
