I am looking for the code to an Microsoft Outlook XP macro that can do the following:
Accept search criteria from a comma delimited text file, external to the code, and search for email in a selected folder that matches the search criteria. Any alternative method is acceptable. The search criteria will be stored in a central location and accessed by 4 different users and will be updated with additions and deletions
## Deliverables
The macro should:
* Present a form that lets the user choose to/from, body, and/or subject. I imagine these to be checkboxes.
<!-- -->
* Allow for the incomplete search terms such as past* (which would return paste and pasted) or past?? (which would return pasted and not paste). An example of a possible search criteria file that the macro should accept is as follows: (files, go*, (bill and bid), (Jane or Joe),past??)
<!-- -->
* Have the same functionality as the Advanced Find feature in Outlook XP such as the returned list can be sorted by fields, a popup menu on right click lets you "Move To", and emails returned can be opened.
* Search to exclude based on the following: not X within A words of Y. For example, not high with 3 words of low.
