Capture new category event
 
Hi

Is it possible when a user enters a new Category, for me to fire some code
as I want to keep an external list of all categories (As I want other users
to have access to this list).

Thank you.

Your best bet is probably to periodically monitor the master category
list in the user's registry and update from there. I don't believe
there any events at all that deal with categories per se.

Hi

Thanks for the response. I do not think they are stored in registry in 2007.
However what I was thinking I may do is on application shutdown do a
comparision to see what categories are new, it seems the best bet.

Thanks for the help however.

Since Outlook 07 there's a Categories collection, which you might check at
intervals.
