 I have a web service that emails me certain information regarding a customer inquiry. The email body is XML with the clients information. I need to build a "dashboard" in Excel that will retrieve the last 10 emails, parse certain information from the XML, and then display this data in a worksheet, automatically updating when a new email comes in.

Any ideas where to start? I've gone through MSDN documentation but it's a little overwhelming for me. I can do some basic programming in VBA but I've never written anything to interact with other Office applications or XML data...
