Hi,

I want to open Outlook 2010 with selected a inbox sub folder from desktop appliation

VB

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

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

          If CType(sender, Button).Tag.ToString = "Inbox" Then
              siFolder = CType(ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox), Outlook.Folder)
          Else
              siFolder = CType(ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox).Parent.folders("Sub Folder Name"), Outlook.Folder)
            
          End If
          System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("outlook")

This code is only working for In box not for Sub folder.

Please Help!
