I came up with this function to return the full path to any particular
folder. I can't see any issues with it, however - please feel free to break it, if it can be. (Yeah so I didn't declare the variables in the example...) Public Function getFullFolderPath() Set nms = Outlook.Application.GetNamespace("MAPI") Set targetFolder = nms.PickFolder strPath = targetFolder While targetFolder.Parent "Outlook" strPath = targetFolder.Parent & "\" & strPath Set targetFolder = targetFolder.Parent Wend Set targetFolder = Nothing Set nms = Nothing getFullFolderPath = strPath End Function |

Why not use the MAPIFolder.FullFolderPath property?

Probably because I'm not familar with that. Also, isn't it only available in
Outlook 2007? The bigger picture is to get the full folder path after a user selects any folder. "Dmitry Streblechenko" wrote: Why not use the MAPIFolder.FullFolderPath property?

It is definitely available in Outlook 2003, not sure about 2002.
