It's upated:

That was incredible yesterday g. Oh, it took a second or so only to
expand my folders under "Outlook Today" but it kept running for about
another hour after this Energizer Bunny message I posted g. Now _that_
part _was_ funny, as initially predicted. I was just amazed how long it
took Outlook to go before crashing, because eventually it did g.

So very kewl that you updated this. That will be neat.

I did get an error though on enabling the macros on O2K startup. The error
message is this:
Ambiguous name detected: Application_Setup

While the text selected is the macro name part:
Private Sub Application_Startup selected

So I couldn't check it out to see what this neat little macro would do.
Crossing fingers Hope it's something easy to fix.

Cheers and thanks!!

Is there any way to limit the macro? It's still going 5 mins later. It

Like the Energizer Bunny, it keeps going and going ... the Public Folder
section is HUGE. It's still expanding them all this time later ... g

Any hope for just expanding the section that I use, under "Outlook
Today"?
g

took a second or two to expand my dozens of folders, but it's taking a
super forever to expand all the ones if the Public Folders which aren't
mine, even.

Thanks.

The workaround is to make each folder once the current one. It's quite
funny
and may take some time:

Strange, I didn't find it funny. In actuality, it's amazing how I
thought that it might take something like this. I've written macros in
AI (AutoIt) for years that play our keystrokes, so this behaviour isn't
unfamiliar to me. Thanks for this, this will make life easier. On the
one hand, we need nested folders to make life easier but filing is a
pane
because O2K doesn't seem to support a way to have the folders expand on
startup.

But that does leave me with a question, the VB script on that page
above
is this:
************************************************** *******
Private Sub Application_Startup()
ExpandAllFolders
End Sub

Private Sub ExpandAllFolders()
On Error Resume Next
Dim F As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim Ns As Outlook.NameSpace

Set Ns = Application.GetNamespace("Mapi")

Set F = Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder

LoopFolders Ns.Folders, True
DoEvents

Set Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder = F
End Sub

Private Sub LoopFolders(Folders As Outlook.Folders, _
ByVal bRecursive As Boolean _
)
Dim F As Outlook.MAPIFolder

For Each F In Folders
Set Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder = F
DoEvents

If bRecursive Then
If F.Folders.Count Then
LoopFolders F.Folders, bRecursive
End If
End If
Next
End Sub
************************************************** *******The _only_
drawback is that it expands everything, even what's in the Public
Folders.Is there a way to limit the above to just expand what's in our
own Outlook Today section?Thanks! -- Viele Gruesse / Best regards

Has
anyone seen a script to expand all the folders upon Outlook opening?
Every time I start the computer and then open Outlook, I have to
expand
all
the folders manually. I've found that the system I use is the best
for
me except that it requires me to do this. Was hoping to automate
it.
I'd rather do one mouse click to give permission for scripts to work
than to continue expanding as if I have to reboot, I still have to
go
back and
expand them once again. Yet having them all as separate folders
with
no nesting creates other issues that I won't go into since it's not
strictly necessary to this thread. Was hoping someone knew
something
that would
work or could direct me to a URL that has one.
