Thanks, Michael. Did not see this syntax in your replies, perhaps I missed
it; still can't find it! Will try to implement this.
Best,

This is what I wrote:

The other syntax ("urn:schemas:httpmail:textdescription") is necessary only
if you want to use the AdvancedSearch method. After calling that method you
get the result in the AdvancedSearchComplete event:

Sub TestAdvancedSearchComplete()
Dim strF As String
Dim strS As String: strS = "Inbox"

strF = "urn:schemas:httpmail:textdescription LIKE '%VBOffice%'"

Application.AdvancedSearch(strS, strF)
End Sub

Private Sub Application_AdvancedSearchComplete(ByVal SearchObject As
Outlook.Search)
Debug.Print Found: " & SearchObject.Results.Count
End Sub

The thread's subjetc is 'extract email from message body'. It would be
easier for everybody to follow if you use the Reply method to reply to
messages and do not change the subject!

I am having difficulty trying to determine how to address the body of an
email message for a search.

Once I have pointed to the correct MAPI location, how do I tell the
macro
to
search the body of the email for a string?

I have been able to get pointers and indexes and boolean responses, but
not
able to address the actual text of the body of the message for the
search.

All suggestions considered; please help!
