Default select navigation pane content

Hi,

I try to program with VS2005 and VSTO an AddIn to pop up contact type public
folder when call arrives.
I would like to get by program the same Outlook 2003 display that I get
manualy which is this:
I added the PF as favorites, so I can see them in "other contacts" section
when I click contact button in the navigation pane. With this way, I can see
cards of contacts, selected contact in preview pane, and I can also have the
different views I can select in the navigation pane.
Does anybody know how I can program this when I open the Public folder in my
Addin ? because by default, I get the all folders list in the navigation pane.

Thank you.

Add the folder to the Public Folders\Favorites hierarchy using the AddToPFFavorites method.

Default select navigation pane content

Sorry Sue, I didn't correctly explain the part I was missing.
Putting the folders in favorite is ok, the thing I would like
programmatically is to open a new explorer with the contact view (this is
also ok programmatically) but after that (and it is what I missunderstand) I
want to select and display programmatically one of the folder listed in the
"other contacts" part of the navigation pane of contact type (folder
previously added to favorite)

Thank you.

I think the method you're looking for is Explorer.SelectFolder.

Default select navigation pane content

I used this method, but it changes the navigation pane content from contact
type to all folders list: I try to keep the contact content in the navigation
pane because the public folder I display is contact type, and with contact
pane I can still easily see the other contact folders, and change view under.

Default select navigation pane content

If it is not possible directly, I would like to know if this one is possible:
After opening the contact, personal contact is selected and displayed in the
explorer.
In the navigation pane, I see contact public folders, added as favorite: how
can I select one of these, just like manually clicking on it ?
Is there a way to get event happening when manually clicking on it ?

thank you.

Assign a different folder to the ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder object property.
