I dunno...this is why I am asking for help. I thought maybe there was way to automate this process. If I could script the process of hitting "import", choosing the next email message/XML entry, in the directly, then deleting it, it would work great.
 
PS...I haven't been here, since I sent the message, so I apologize for the late response.

If you have 250 emails, how would you expect to handle them all at once?

Subject: [AccessD] Importing XML into Access 03 or 07

Our department hosts this Technology & Homeland Security Forum every
year...it is at the Niagara Falls Casino this year, next month. This is
my first year of any involvement other than "one of the department
employees." The woman who did this, in the past, posted a registration
form, on our web site
(http://www.niagaracounty.com/docs/registrationform.pdf) that she
created using "Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0" This information is
received by us, usually, via email, in the format of the
following...actually, I'll place it at the end...

Each single email contains XML data for one single user. She was
importing these, somehow, into Excel. Excel would be fine, although, I'd
prefer Access. I know how to import each of these one at a time, but
there are about 250 of these and I'd like to import them all at once if
I could. 

Any ideas?

XML data, in Email follows:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- (
file:///G:/Tech%20Forum%202007/Final%20Attendee%20Information/Registrati
on%20Forms/deemer.xml# ) <form1>
- (
file:///G:/Tech%20Forum%202007/Final%20Attendee%20Information/Registrati
on%20Forms/deemer.xml# ) <!--
