Can an Imacros be created for this scenario or not? - automation

I have a CSV file of emails that I would like to have each email uploaded individually but automatically to a site.
Steps are to copy the email, go to the site and paste email in proper field. Do the same things with the first name, then confirm. Then click back to main page to input next email and name.
Is this possible with iMacros or not?
Thanks

Yes it's possible. Use this http://wiki.imacros.net/Command_Reference

Recalculating Cells

I have a list with email addresses that were pulled into a an excel sheet. I want the emails to show as mailto links. If you double click into the cell and then hit enter that is what happens. But the list is long and I want to do it for every row. Is there a macro I can use to complete this task for me? Recording didn't really help.
Sounds to me like you want to use the
=HYPERLINK("mailto:")
function, not sure if you actually want to be able to generate emails and send them or just prefer that format for the cells. This site will help you.
Hope this helps and Good luck!!

Delete default signature in Outlook and replace with content from doc/htm file

My workplace has introduced an draconian new uniform signature across the entire business which looks absolutely repulsive, and I can't in good conscience email clients without having to manually change it every single time.
I'm assuming it's being created via a macro that runs at start up. I'd like to set up a macro that I can activate from the ribbon that deletes the default signature that is in place when Outlook starts, and replace it with a new signature that is sourced (including formatting) from either a doc or a html file.
I've been searching for a couple of hours and can't find any macro code that either a) deletes a signature or b) allows for the creation of a new one by way of data from another file.
Can VB do what I'm looking for?
Many thanks in advance!
If you can't change the default signature for your e-mail account with the Outlook Options, take a look at
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Signatures
You will find the HTML files containing your signatures. Edit it directly...
Create a new signature, that way you only need to select it from a drop-down menu in the ribbon, and the policies that enforce the default will not see the custom one.

Excel macro downloading files

I am currently making a macro that when i click on the button on the excel spreadsheet, it will go to this website and download the file onto my desktop and save it with the file name "flower.jpg". how would i go about doing this? the website i am downloading this file from is my own website using php coding and such, but i am kinda new to vba macro programming. please help.
i currently have this code but it always gives me an error which i have no clue what for.
my.computer.network.downloadfile(website link here, my desktop location)
Thank you
If you have a password protected site, try this code instead
my.computer.network.downloadfile(website link here, my desktop location, username, password)

Change contents of "assign to"

I activated restrict_owner to change the textfield to a dropdown when creating a new ticket. Is there a way to change the contents of that dropdown from user id's to user names?
The reason is, that all user id's that we use to log in are somewhat cryptic (something like xyz01, xyz02 and so on). If that list could show the associated user names, that you can enter in the prefs, that would be perfect.

Sascha
To get around that, I installed the Auto-Complete Users Plugin. This will allow you to more easily select a user by account name, real name, or email address, plus it seems to have better performance than using restrict_owner.
I'm not sure if the plugin covers all of the same form fields as the restrict_owner option. If there's one that it misses, it shouldn't be too difficult to modify the code and add another field.

Using VSTO to perform an action via selected e-mail text in Outlook

This should be pretty a pretty common scenario, but I have not found a solution yet.
I would like to highlight some text within the body of an e-mail and then click on something (context menu, toolbar button, etc) to perform a URL navigation using the selected text. For example, highlight the Fex Ex tracking number and then navigate to their web site using it as a query parameter (like "ww.fedextracking.com?packageid=12345").
How can you capture the selected text within an e-mail and then perform an action? I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or examples.
Thank you!
For Outlook 2007-2010 (or previous versions using WordMail), you can retrieve a Word object from the Inspector.WordEditor property. Then you can work with Word.Selection to access the selected text.
However, for Plain Text or Rich Text scenarios with Outlook 2000-2003, you have to use the SafeInspector object with Redemption (http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/) to access the selected text. I can't remember, but for HTML format messages with Outlook 2003-2003 you may be able to access the selected text with the IHTMLDocument object retrieved from SafeInspector.
I appreciate it's 588 days since you asked your question Loki70, but if somebody else Googles up this page (like I did, looking for how to create a selected text right-click context menu entry) then this may be an answer for you.
I have been using AutoHotKey, which works not just in Outlook, but everywhere in Windows, and have been writing utilities to Google the selected text, open an SSH session in PuTTY to the selected hostname, and similar.
If you don't mind running an extra application on your PC to capture the hotkey combination that you send, then this would do exactly what you're asking.
Here is my post on the AutoHotKey forum with a link to my code:
http://www.autohotkey.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=86402
It would be trivial to adapt this to do the FedEx query you've mentioned.
I hope this helps.
