[AccessD] Export Contacts to Outlook

Jack:

The code looks like it should work but at the line:

 Set TestFolder = olNameSpace.Folders.Item(FoldersArray(0))

I get that same error message "The operation failed.  An object could not be
found."  FoldersArray(0) contains "DocketWorks".  

I tried passing "\\Contacts\DocketWorks\  but got the same error looking for
Contacts.  

There's something screwy with my app here.  But I can't see it.  

Anything else you think I could try?

TIA

Rocky

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

Hope you can adapt it as needed for your situation.

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?

TIA

Rocky

Hi Rocky

This works in my Outlook Contact updating mdb

Set objOutlookFolder = objOutlookNameSpace.Folders("Public
Folders").Folders("All Public Folders").Folders(strFolder)

Me too -- Rocky, don't forget about Helen's site -- there might be an
example of this there.
