How to decide if an Outlook message is created by New/Reply/Forwar
How to decide if an Outlook message is created by New/Reply/Forward in VB?
What I'm trying to do is to list all open outlook messages created by New/Reply/Forward, which are suppose to be sent out. Thanks.

How to decide if an Outlook message is created by New/Reply/Forwar
If the item is a reply or forward it would have a ConversationIndex property
that isn't null. Other than that you'd have to look at the subject and look for "" or "FW:" or whatever. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

How to decide if an Outlook message is created by New/Reply/Fo
Thank you for your reply, Ken. But both your suggestions will not work for me:
1) ConversationIndex - yes, it's blank for a New item; but for an existing item, it always has a value no matter if you created an item by Reply/Forward an existing one, or opened an existing item by simple double clicking it. 2) "" or "FW:" - a) is not reliable (either the user can modify it at any time, or it may vary for different languages); b) again, cannot distinguish an item created by Reply/Forward from an item (may already has or FW: in the subject) opened by double clicking. I may not be very clear. What I really want is the way to distinguish the items created by Reply/Forward, "which are suppose to be sent out" (quoted from my original post), from the items opened by double clicking, which just for viewing or printing or whatever purposes.

A new forward or reply will have EntryID as null or null string until it's
saved. There is no real good way to do what you want. You have to live with the various hacks that are available. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Sadly "there is no real good way..." :-(
I think that the EntryID is better solution for me then :-) Thank you again, Ken.

How to decide if an Outlook message is created by New/Reply/Fo
Replies almost always have a Recipients.Count 0 (a reply with no sender would be rare). Forwards have Recipients.Count = 0.
Received items will have Sent = True. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "X.

Thanks Sue. "Sent" should work for me.
