macro to extract subject line and "paste" in advanced search stef <stef.bm_at_hotmail.com> 02.08.2006 15:21:31 OL 2002 SP3 Win XP HE SP1 Follow-up to: microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba Hi, I need to create some advanced searches that will look into specific email sub-folders "A" and "C", for example. I am planning on creating the advanced search, save it locally and put some icons in a custom toolbar 4 quick access. Can anyone help me with the 2nd part of this project which would be to extract the subject line of an email (e.g. "our telephone conversation of today") and paste it or use it in the Advanced Find search feature under advanced tab: conversation is (exactly) "our telephone conversation of today". I am trying to replicate the "search all related emails" that appears in yellow on top of email messages headers in preview pane in your inbox once you have replied to a message ("you replied on 8/2/2006 10:00 AM. Click here to find all related messages")--a default feature of OL which unfortunately ONLY searches in the current folder (in my case Inbox), Inbox, Drafts, Sent Items. I would like to add sub-folders "A" and "C" to that list or ONLY have sub-folders "A" and "C". I am open to any other suggestions as to how accomplish this but I was thinking that since that feature does not seem to be customizable (at least that's what I am told--but could be subject to registry hack perhaps?), perhaps a VBA macro could be the only solution. Thanks for ur expert advice, u geniuses out there!
