Can you guys tell me how to implement this?
I have several categories and would like emails that are sent regarding
specific events:
Such as an email sent with the word "Netapp" to automatically be assinged
netapp upgrade category.
How can a programatically setup categories in this manner?
Please include step by step instructions as I am new to outlook programming
and don't know exactly how to edit the code but, have done similar things in
thep ast with previous verisons of outlook.
I appreciate the help.

Yes. Unless you save the item, the changes are not permanent.

Hi Sue,
I'm not doing a .Save anywhere in my code. Do you think that including one
after my category assignment would encourage the explorer to re-group by
category?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Maybe a dumb question, but are you also including an objMail.Save statement?

Hello again,
a small update to my problem:
When I assign a Category programmatically (through objMail.Categories =
"MyCategory" as before), the explorer doesn't catch on to the fact that the
category has changed until I right-click and do Categories...
The category I assigned programmatically is there in the list and is ticked,
and it's only when I ok this dialog that the explorer finally re-organises
itself and the email is grouped by the correct category.
Is there a way to programmatically force this to happen?

Hi Guys,
Outlook 2003, VBA Code:
I'm programmatically assigning categories to email messages (e.g.
objMail.Categories = "My Category"). All very well, but when I have my
emails arranged by Category, the location of the email in the Explorer does
not always match up its Category. Is there a way to refresh the sort when a
category changes. This area of functionality seems a little "flakey".
Your help is greatly appreciated.
