Script or VBA to Export Public Folder 'Company Contacts'
As part of a disaster recovery plan we're implementing, I need to export our
MS Exchange Public Folder "Company Contacts", zip it, and email it to a backup email address. Can anyone guide me in programming this so that I don't have to do it manually every day? I have modest VBA skills. Thank you for your help! -Clint Marshall

Script or VBA to Export Public Folder 'Company Contacts'
Unfortunately you cannot automate the Import/Export Wizard in Outlook. If
you want to export to a .pst you have to do it manually. However, there are ways that you can create a .pst and copy a folder to it using code. Even then you can't schedule a task to do this as running Outlook code in the context of a service is unsupported. -- Eric Legault - Outlook MVP, MCDBA, MCTS (SharePoint programming, etc.) Try Picture Attachments Wizard for Outlook: http://www.collaborativeinnovations.ca Blog: http://blogs.officezealot.com/legault/ "Clint Marshall" wrote: As part of a disaster recovery plan we're implementing, I need to export our MS Exchange Public Folder "Company Contacts", zip it, and email it to a backup email address.

What format does the export need to be in? Is running this via a single
mouse click satisfactory, or does it have to run unattended? -- David Lee - MVP Outlook

A single mouse click would be a huge improvement over where we are today.
Unattended is better, but a single mouse click would make it dummy-proof and let others share the burden. Got an idea? "D.Lee" wrote in message ... What format does the export need to be in?

Yes, I do. I need the answer to my other question though. What format does
the export need to be in? -- David Lee - MVP Outlook "Clint Marshall" wrote: Got an idea?

Sorry!
I'm importing the exported file into Outlook as a contacts list, so my guess is that a .pst file would be ideal, but perhaps another format will work just as well, or even better. That's the only real criteria... "D.Lee" wrote in message ... Yes, I do. I need the answer to my other question though.
