You can't use the OVC for that. You'd need to write code to fill say, a flexgrid control, with the data from each folder.

Thank you Sue.

My goal is to see multiple items in multiple folders in one single view. My
form is in the public area and for example, I need to see all e-mails that
exist in multiple Exchange users Mailboxes.

Is this not possible? Any ideas to get me started?

Thanks again Sue,
Joel

The OVC doesn't do searches like the Activities view does. It works more
like the filter that you apply to a folder. As a result, neither of your
ideas is possible.

Hello,

I added an Outlook View Control (OVC) to a form so that I can make my own
view of items much the same way the Activities Tab works in a Contact
Form.

It works, but here are 2 things that I'm trying to figure out:

1- I want the OVC to bring in items as it finds them the same way the
Activities Tab works. Right now, it doesn't show anything until it's
found
all the items and it's very slow. (I'm using the Restriction command to
filter the items I need)

2- How can I make the OVC look at multiple folders?

Thanks very much for your help,
Joel
