Easily copy attachments names in an Outlook email to the clipboard

By default, there is no feature in Outlook to help copying attachment names in an email directly. If you want to list or copy all attachment names of an email in Outlook, maybe the VBA method can do you a favor, otherwise, you need to type the names manually. Here highly recommend the Copy Names utility of Kutools for Outlook. With this feature, you can easily copy names of selected or all attachments in an email to the clipboard with one click only. After that, just press the Ctrl + V keys to paste them to any other places as you need.
