I have an email account setup something like:

\\serverbox\exchange\alienbeings\companymailbox_1\inbox

Once every while the company sends an email with an Excel attachment. I want to look at the attachments by name and if they are titled properly I want to pull them into DTS for processing. I have been able to process xls files. All I need to do now is pick the right one from the email inbox and I'm done.

My exchange box is not on the same box as sqlserver and we do no runn http service on it.

Any assistance either code wise or reference wise is much appreciated. My deadline is July 1..yikes!!!

Cheers!!"
