Hi Michael,

When walking through the code, it fails at that same line as befo

Set Folder = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderSpam)

I assume that you believe that it has to do with not finding the correct
folder?

Will the function you gave me tell me this? If so, how do I run this within
Outlook (I am an advanced programmer in VBA for access and excel, but outlook
is a different animal).

Thanks for your continued support!

Ariel, please walk through the code execution step by step (F8) and watch
what happens. Don´t use an "On Error Resume Next" statement for debugging.

It all depends on that the folder will be found, so you don´t need to
"assume" but to know the folder :-)

BTW: Any folder named "Spam" is not the default Junk Folder.

Hi Michael,

I am placing the code in the ThisOutlookSession module, so I assume that
the
path is "Personal Folders\Spam."

I am not getting any error message now, but nothing is happening?

Thanks for your help.

Hallo Ariel,

does the latter sample raise the same error? Where do you insert that
code,
is it the module ThisOutlookSession (VBA) or a custom form (VBS)?

In VBS the constants are unknown, instead use their values directly; for
olFolderJunk it´s 23, for olFolderInbox it´s 11.

Here´s a samle for getting folders by their path:

Guten tag, Michael.

I am using Outlook 2003. The Spam folder is a folder under Personal
Folders.
This code does not appear to find that folder, and thus it ends without
doing
anything.

Danke,

Ariel

That´s a sampel for getting the Junk folder in OL 2003. If you use OL
2000
then you do not have that standard folder.

You need to know what folder you´re looking for. If it´s a subolder of
the
Inbox e.g. then you could also write:

Dim Folder as Outlook.Folder
Dim Items as Outlook.Items

Set Folder=Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFold erInbox)
Set Folder=Folder.Folders("name")
Set Items=Folder.Items

What code can I use to delete all messages in a folder (e.g. spam
mail
folder)?

Thanks in advance!
