Is there any way to search for an Outlook contact item that has double
quotes in there Name/FileAs field ? The FileAs field has like - Smith, David "Home" Dim fldrs As Outlook.MAPIFolder Dim SearchItem As Outlook.ContactItem ' this assignment doesn't work in VB as written, but I'm just trying to represent the string ' I'm searching for strSearch = "[FileAs] = "Smith, David "Home"" Set SearchItem = g_fldr.Items.Find(strSearch)

Create your search string like this, specifying the ASCII character for the
double-quote and using a single-quote to delimit the value of the field you are searching on. strSearch = "[FileAs]='Smith, David " & Chr(34) & "Home" & Chr(34) & "'" "Dave" wrote in message ...
