Default Creating a menu or command button in Outlook

Yup, Sue's book is the perfect way to start. Her Outlook 2007 programming
book will also be out very shortly as well (disclosure - I edited it).

It could actually be a lot easier than using the Organizer feature - the
"Move to Folder" button rememebers the last 10 folders you've moved an item
to. Just do it once and you'll most likely never have to browse to the
folder very often. However, I still use a "Move To Projects Folder"
button/macro for those instances where I'm too darn lazy to select the folder
if I so happened to have moved previous items to 10 other folders in the
interim.

We developers of course love to overthink things and do it the hard way, but
I'm sure your users would be more than happy with the existing feature - no
code, no mess!

That's me. I have no idea how many people will be using my application
that connects to and manipulates Outlook emails. I'd sooner have them
use something exisiting and prebuilt in Outlook and support other issues
in my application bound to come up.

That being said, I'd like to learn more about Outlook. Someday I may be
be able to contribute some words of wisdom to other seeekers or
knowledge. I ordered Sue's book today, that should get me started.
