That can't be done, not with the OVC, not with an actual Explorer object.

I'm using the Outlook ActiveX View control in a VB app and I can't see how
to get it to seek to a specified Email.

What my customer wants is for my app to sync its Outlook View Control to
whatever email they're currently on in MS Outlook. I can see how to create
a MailItem object for the one they're on in Outlook, but I can't see any
method of the View control to go to the same email.

Any help much appreciated.
