I have an online form that submits to my email account. The information filled out by the visitor shows up in the body of a message that looks similar to this:

vfname: John
vlname: Doe
vaddress1: 1234 Sleepy Hollow Dr.
vcity: Allentown
vstate: PA
vzip: 12345

I need an (Outlook?) macro to export this information to an Excel workbook that has column headings that correspond to the above fields. Can anyone get me started on the best method for this operation?

No macro needed. Select all, copy in wordpad ans save as .txt. Next open it with excel, conversion/import tool will open automatically. Follow instructions.Next, if text is still like in the message, choose copy/special paste/transposition. That's done. I did it with ur message's body, via word: proceed ok.

That's an OK solution for a single email, but I have several hundred of these emails a day. See now why I need a macro? It's possible that this is too complicated a task for this forum. It's definitely too complicated for me!!
