I was wondering how I would get a macro within Outlook 2003 to prompt the
user for a folder/sub-folder for the macro to use in the script? This is a snipit of what I am working with. Set MySubFolder = InputBox,,, ' Select the folder to work in. As you can see I don't have much. Thanks, Rob |

What you want is the NameSpace.PickFolder() method. That returns a
MAPIFolder object for the folder the user selected. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Rob" wrote in message ...

OK, I'm trying to test it by the below method and I am doing it wrong because
of the errors I'm getting. Dim ns As NameSpace Dim MyMessage As MAPIFolder Set MyMessage = ns.PickEmailFolders MsgBox MyMessage "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: What you want is the NameSpace.PickFolder() method.
