Create Task or Appointment and Insert Selected Text. My article at Create a Task from an Email using a Rule shows how to create a task from an email message but what if only want to include the actionable part of the message in the task?
You don't actually need a macro to do this - Outlook has a pretty cool feature built in that makes this easy: just select the text and drag to the Tasks button on the navigation pane and drop. A new task form opens with the selected text in the task body, ready for you to fill out the subject and dates. You can drag text to any folder to create an item with the text in the body field; this method can be used to create an appointment, contact, new message, or a note.It's not limited to content already in Outlook - you can drag a selection in a web page in Edge in Windows 10 (this worked in IE in old versions of Windows & Outlook) or Word.
If an application doesn't support dragging, you can copy and paste in a folder to create a new item. MissingLink Project ManagementDownload. Email Overload Management - Inbox Zero.

But succeeded in writing a VBA macro using a freeware DOS utility in it to change file date. See my code below. To use it, select the emails you want to save to a particular folder and run this code.
