Hi,

Can you tell me if there is a way to copy an item from one folder to another
using Outlook without first making a copy in the original folder ??

You can do this with CDO, but not Outlook. Does anyone know if this will be
available in Outlook 2007 ?

Thanks

Hi Michael,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I am aware of the copy function, the problem is that the copy function takes
a copy of the message in the same folder. There doesn't appear to be a way to
specifiy a destination folder.

I want to be able to copy a message from one folder to another without first
saving it in the original folder.

My reason for this is that I have read access to the original folder (it's
actually another users inbox), but I cannot save items in it. I can open a
message quite happily in code, but I cannot copy it, nor can I save a copy to
a file. CDO will let you do this, but I cannot use CDO as I do not see the
folder at all when I log into a CDO session.

I was hoping there may be some way around this, or that the new OL2007
object model would make it possible, but I've had a cursory look and can see
no improvement.

Seems like a pretty simple requirement to me !

Regards,
LJ

You can use Redemption (www.dimastr.com) instead of CDO.

Thanks again, but I think (and I may be wrong) that redemption will suffer
the same problem as CDO. It will be unaware of the store I am looking at.

Also my code supports the use of Redemption OR CDO/OL and needs to work in
the same way for both. So the OL/CDO version would still have problems.

I guess I'll have to chalk it up as unsolvable and hope they add a better
copy method in OL2007 ......
