OK here is what I want to do:
I will manually put all of my emails in an outlook folder called "Autofile" when I want to file them.
I want a macro to run which will
- search that folder for emails
- look in the subject line for known strings (say "Project X")
- place each email into the relevant Outlook filing folder (so the "Project X" emails would all go into "Project X" folder)
- any emails left behind I will deal with myself
But I can't find anything online about how to do this that doesn't require me to learn so much VBA that I'd be quicker just filing the emails myself.
Can you help? I will be eternally grateful...

It's true that in order to create an automated file to do what you want, you'd probably need to learn VBA. An easier solution would be to setup filters within Outlook to place files that contain certain keywords, or senders, or emails to place them in certain folders, where this is a longer process it will achieve the same results and not require any special programming knowledge.
Just go into tools and then to message rules and setup the parameters of what you want.

You don't need macros or VBA to do this. The best way would be to set up rules - go to Message Rules under the Tools menu. You will need to select the one that mentions "do something when a message arrives", and follow the instructions.

You could set up some filter/mail rules that would achieve this without you needing to go anywhere near VBA macros.
