Programming Outlook "Doctor Who" <marinos[ at ]theovatech.com> 01.08.2006 10:43:57 Hello I am programming Outlook using C# and I need some help to do the following: 1. Move Items to a non-default mail folder that I created: In my case I have created a folder called "Backup" which was created at the root level. I have seen examples of how to access standard folders such as the Inbox and also child folders created under the Inbox, but how do I gain access to a custom mail folder created at the root level. 2. How can I programmatically send (properly formatted) reply emails to emails I have received. Thanking you in advance.

If so it would probably be accessed as: myFolder = oNameSpace.Folders.Item("Backup"); Formatted how? If you get a handle to an email you can call its Reply function and get back a reply mail item. See www.outlookcode.com for lots of Outlook programming examples, including C#. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Doctor Who" <marinos[ at ]theovatech.com> wrote in message news:1154429037.169631.221510[ at ]m73g2000cwd.googlegroups.com...

Re: Programming Outlook "Doctor Who" <marinos[ at ]theovatech.com> 03.08.2006 06:29:08 Thanks Ken, I have been trying to use the reply method of the mailitem but doesn't appear to work (or maybe I do not undertsand how it works). In the application that I am writing I loop through all items in my inbox and for certain emails I parse the message body and accordingly take some actions such as move the email to another folder and sometimes send a reply message to the originator. What I meant by 'formatted reply' was add the RE prefix to the subject of original message, have the oroginal message in the reply's body with the email header information and a line separator just as you get when you manually reply to an email. Cheers,
