I asked this over on Access-d, but didn't see a response. Sorry for those of you that are seeing a repeat. I'm trying to export mail items to an Access data. A wizard takes care of this nicely, if you go the manual route. The wizard will create a database if it doesn't exist and will export all the fields without specifically mapping them to an Access table -- it works great. Using VBA, the only way I've found to do the same is to cycle through all the mail fields and using a Recordset object add them to an existing database with the appropriate table fields. Now, I expected to find some easy-to-implement export method in the form, but I haven't. My code lets the user select a folder and checks for the folder "type" using a For loop that counts items in the folder: For I = CurrentFolder.Items.Count To 1 Step -1 but then I have to hardcode all the mail fields -- was hoping to avoid all that. Is there an export function? I can't find it in Outlook's VBA Help. Also, I really thought a For Each would be better, but can't get the objects right. Susan H.
