Selecting a specific Outlook Folder

contact97438 asked:

Open original thread
Hello,

I want to select a specific Outlook (2010) folder, lets say for example an organization like that in my Outlook :
Dossiers personnels\Inbox
Dossiers personnels\SentItems

and some other folders like :

Dossiers personnels\Privé
Dossiers personnels\Privé\michele@gmail.com
Dossiers personnels\Privé\michele@laposte.net
Dossiers personnels\Privé\hugo@orange.fr
Dossiers personnels\Privé\virginie@wanadoo.fr
Dossiers personnels\Privé\rachel@wanadoo.fr

I've declared :
VB
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop
...

Dim app As Outlook.Application
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim siFolder As Outlook.Folder = Nothing

app = New Outlook.Application()
ns = app.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Dim olFolders As Outlook.Folders = ns.Folders


I have no problem to select INBOX, with :
VB
siFolder = CType(ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox), Outlook.Folder)


and SENTITEMS Folders, with :
VB
siFolder = CType(ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSentMail), Outlook.Folder)



But I don't know how to select the folder "Privé", then "Privé\michele@gmail.com", and so on ...


Thanks for your help.

  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
