If you are using CDO 1.21 you can use Session.Name to get the profile name or with Redemption (www.dimastr.com/redemption) you can use RDOSession.ProfileName or MAPIUtils.CurrentProfileName. -- 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 "Sunny" <sunny[ at ]newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:%2341oM4eUGHA.2492[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl...

I just need to make the difference between the calendar items, stored in either of the profiles? Sunny

Re: Outlook2000 and later - how to get the profile used for the session "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 3/31/2006 2:03:59 PM I don't follow. StoreID has nothing to do with profile names. If you can get a store in the API you're using you'd use StoreID for that and you can tell if folders are in different stores by comparing StoreID but that still won't get you the profile name. -- 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 "Sunny" <sunny[ at ]newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:%23SyfHUBVGHA.4348[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl...
