For me, rotational means the first e-mail gets color 1, the second color 2
etc. Because there are only 5 colors the sixth e-mail must get color 1
again.

If you have a question, please ask.

Hi Michael ...

THANKS for the reply ... I guess I wasn't descriptive enough ... basically
when an email arrives .. so it could be 1 or a 100 times a day (more
likely
the latter!) each new email is assigned a colour ... based on the loop I
mentioned. If the way you suggest is the way ... then I'll start working
out
what the heck you were referring to!
I love a challenge!

If that's on a daily basis, assuming that you start Outlook not more than
once a day, you can store the current value on the module level. Start
the
value with 1, that is set it to olPurpleFlagIcon in the Startup event.

In the ItemAdd event of the Inbox set the item's FlagIcon property to the
current value, then increase its value by 1. If the value is bigger than
6
(olRedFlagIcon) then set it back to 1.

Status of Orange, Message 3 - Flag Status of Red, Message 1 - Flag

Any help would be very gratefully received.
