read email attachment from last received email and echo out last decimal value

I don't know if this is the correct section of the forum to implement this code but l thought since a lot of the guys here helped me with this code l should share my completed code faulty or not (it works for me!) in the hope it helps someone else. It will read an attachment from the last email received to the specified account and remove all data bar data with a numerical decimal value and echo it out. I have spent 3 days trawling the internet and getting help with this code as well as learning from it so l would just like to thank everybody who helped me create it in one way or another.

 

cheers Callum
