@praneethpeyyeti Check below thread

Read a .msg file and save attachement

This simple vbs should work fine, you could even pass the arguments in the Start Process activity. Dim OlApp Dim Eml Dim Arg Set Arg = WScript.Arguments Dim File File = Arg(0) Set OlApp = CreateObject(“Outlook.Application”) Set Eml = OlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(File) Download(Eml) Sub Download(objEml) For Each Attch In objEml.Attachments Attch.SaveAsFile "C:\temp\" & Attch.FileName Next End Sub [image]

Hello,

was going through similar situation and found this thread,

Dim OlApp Dim Eml Dim Arg Set Arg = WScript.Arguments Dim File File = Arg(0) Set OlApp = CreateObject(“Outlook.Application”) Set Eml = OlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(File) Download(Eml) Sub Download(objEml) For Each Attch In objEml.Attachments Attch.SaveAsFile "C:\temp\" & Attch.FileName Next End Sub [image]

Thanks,

Hi, I also encounter below error when I was trying to place the vbs into a notepad and try to run it. My goal is to read a .msg file in a folder then extact the subject and place it in an email. But I can’t even read the .msg at the moment… please help

Just delete signs: " and click it by keyboard and it should work

BTW I tried with this one:

Dim OlApp
Dim Eml
Dim Arg
Set Arg = WScript.Arguments
Dim File

File = Arg(0)
Sciezka = Arg(1)

Set OlApp = CreateObject(“Outlook.Application”)
Set Eml = OlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(File)
Download(Eml)

Sub Download(objEml)
For Each Attch In objEml.Attachments
Attch.SaveAsFile Sciezka&Attch.FileName
Next
End Sub

And when i pass 2 arguments (first for msg file, second for directory to save attachments) it works as well
I used Invoke VBScript activity.

Use Invoke Code and pass arguments

I am trying to use this script but it is not working for me, i haven’t changed anything you have used in the script except input argument names.
