Default User property for folder

Hi,
I want to add user property in a outlook folder item. I have found one
property namely 'Outlook.MAPIFolder.UserDefinedProperties'. But the problem
with this property is it sets the property to every email item in the folder.

Can I have such a property on folder which is set only on folder?

Folder.PropertyAccessor is the correct object for that task.

What exactly do you nee that property for?
Keep in mind that most folder don't allow named properties on the fodler
object per-se, so in most cases hidden (associated) messages are used to
store per-folder specific data.
