Question

I’m using Outlook 2007 – and have my main mailbox: Tait, Mark

I have also added another mailbox to my profile: Procurement, Request

Both appear as top level folders within Outlook:

Mailbox – Tait, Mark>
-Conversation History
-Deleted Items
-Drafts
-Inbox
-Junk E-Mail

Mailbox – Procurement, Request
–Conversation History
–Deleted Items
–Drafts
–Inbox
–Junk E-Mail

I can get a reference to my default Inbox (Tait, Mark) using:
Set Inbox = ns.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)

How do I get a reference to the Inbox in the “Procurement, Request” mailbox?

Answer 1

Something like this should do the trick

Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim objFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Set objNS = GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = objNS.Folders("Procurement, Request")
Set objFolder = objFolder.Folders("Inbox")
