Open an Excel attachment in Outlook 2010 using VBA - excel

Question

I would like to know how to Open an Excel attachment in my inbox Outlook 2010 with VBA code.
I would like the code to:
Check for a specific subject that does not change "Test"
Check if that email is read or unread and if it is unread to use that one
I have a rule in place where the emails are stored in a subfolder based on the subject but I can change it to go back to the main inbox
I would really appreciate if you can explain what the code is doing as I am not familiar with the Outlook connection bit.
This is what I have pulled together from various sites including stackoverflow it does the job.
It seems to run for emails that have RE: in the subject for the 10PM and 5PM emails. I explicitly named subject of the two emails. Can anyone help me?
I am not familiar with declaring variables for Outlook objects. Have I declared the variables correctly?
I would also like to copy the data within each file and paste it into another workbook. I would like the data to be pasted underneath the first data from each work book so it will need to find the last row and paste it 1 row below the last row for each data on each workbook onto the open workbook which is stored in another path.
.
Sub DownloadAttachmentFirstUnreadEmail()
Const olFolderInbox = 6
Const AttachmentPath As String = "C:\My Documents\Outlook Test\"
Dim oOlAtch As Object
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNamespace = objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = objNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set objFolder = objFolder.Folders("**CLIENT ISSUES**").Folders("*Daily Reports").Folders("1. Open Trade Report")
Set colItems = objFolder.Items
Set colFilteredItems1 = colItems.Restrict("[Unread] = True AND [Subject] = '10PM FXC Email notification for Martin Currie'")
Set colFilteredItems2 = colItems.Restrict("[Unread] = True AND [Subject] = 'FXC Email notification for Martin Currie Funds'")
'~~> Check if there are any actual unread 10PM FXC emails
If colFilteredItems1.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "NO Unread 10PM Email In Inbox"
Else
'~~> Extract the attachment from the 1st unread email
For Each colItems In colFilteredItems1
'~~> Check if the email actually has an attachment
If colItems.Attachments.Count <> 0 Then
For Each oOlAtch In colItems.Attachments
'~~> save the attachment and open them
oOlAtch.SaveAsFile AttachmentPath & oOlAtch.Filename
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=AttachmentPath & oOlAtch.Filename)
Next oOlAtch
Else
MsgBox "10PM email doesn't have an attachment"
End If
Next colItems
End If
'~~> Check if there are any actual unread FXC Email emails
If colFilteredItems2.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "NO Unread 5PM Email In Inbox"
Else
'~~> Extract the attachment from the 1st unread email
For Each colItems In colFilteredItems2
'~~> Check if the email actually has an attachment
If colItems.Attachments.Count <> 0 Then
For Each oOlAtch In colItems.Attachments
'~~> save the attachment and open them
oOlAtch.SaveAsFile AttachmentPath & oOlAtch.Filename
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=AttachmentPath & oOlAtch.Filename)
Next oOlAtch
Else
MsgBox "5PM email doesn't have an attachment"
End If
Next colItems
End If
End Sub

First of all, I'd suggest starting from the Getting Started with VBA in Outlook 2010 article in MSDN.
You can assign a VBA macro to the Outlook rule, it should look like the following one:
public sub test(mail as MailItem)
'
end sub
where you can check out the mail object. It looks like you need to check out the Subject, UnRead and Attachments properties of the MailItem class.
