Rocky, I have had similar problem with syntax for opening (identifying) a folder in Outlook 2003. Pickfolder works but I couldn't get to a folder using vba without pickfolder. Anyway, I saw your request and did some searching and trials. I got a response from OutlookCode.com which I have adjusted and can now open my Folders using vba. My original request and a jpg of my Outlook folder structure and the solution (last message in the link below) are useful to you. My id was (OrangeCat) http://www.outlookcode.com/threads.aspx?forumid=2&messageid=32433 Hope you can adapt it as needed for your situation. jack -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin Sent: Saturday, November 06, 2010 11:36 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Export Contacts to Outlook Andy: I still get "Operation failed. An object could not be found". But when I use Set olFolder = olNameSpace.PickFolder and select DocketWorks (sub folder under Contacts) it works and olFolder.Name shows "DocketWorks". What do you suppose I'm doing wrong?
