Hello,
I want to automate the task of moving the currently open Outlook message into
a folder called "TEMP" I found a code example on this forum but have a few
questions. My variation of the code pasted below.

1) How do I dimension those object variables (note ????? in the code)?
2) Does the code look right?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Best Regards,
Dean

Very good Dean, just a little messed up :-)

You need a ref onto the currently opened item. If you want to handle every
item types with then you can use a declaration As Object. Else, if there are
MailItems only you could declare the variable As MailItem.

Then you need a ref onto the target folder. Every folder is the same object
type of and is called MapiFolder.

If the target folder is a subfolder of the Inbox then get a ref onto the
Inbox (itself, not its Items) first then onto a child of it.

In code:

Dim objCurItem as Object
Dim InboxFolder as Outlook.MapiFolder
Dim TargetFolder as Outlook.MapiFolder

' currently opened item
Set objCurItem = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

' Inbox folder
Set InboxFolder = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olInboxFolder )

' Subfolder of the Inbox
Set TargetFolder = InboxFolder.Item("TEMP")

' Move the message
Set objCurItem = objCurItem.Move(TargetFolder)

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the advice. I'm still having a problem with this line:

Set InboxFolder = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olInboxFolder )

I thought maybe it was a problem with "olInboxFolder" and tried the constant
"olFolderInbox" but that didn't work. I'm also wondering if I need the lack
of NameSpace and BoxItems instantiations is a problem. Thanks.

If the target folder is a subfolder of the Inbox then get a ref onto the
Inbox (itself, not its Items) first then onto a child of it.

In code:

Dim objCurItem as Object
Dim InboxFolder as Outlook.MapiFolder
Dim TargetFolder as Outlook.MapiFolder

' currently opened item
Set objCurItem = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

' Inbox folder
Set InboxFolder = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olInboxFolder )

' Subfolder of the Inbox
Set TargetFolder = InboxFolder.Item("TEMP")

' Move the message
Set objCurItem = objCurItem.Move(TargetFolder)

Sorry, olFolderInbox is correct.

What do you mean by "that doesn´t work", do you get an error?

Hi Michael,
I was getting an error (forget the exact error message). I combined the
advice you gave me along with some code I pulled off of the MS website and
came up with something that works (pasted below). Thanks for your help!

Dean
