How to determine if a user has write access to a Public Folder?
 

How can I determine programmatically, using VB6, if a user has write access
to a Public Folder?

- Using the Redemption library, the AddressList.IsReadOnly is not set for
Public Folders.
- Using CDO.Folder.Fields.Item(CDO_PR_RIGHTS) raise an error with Public
Folders (but works correctly for Local folders)
- Using the Outlook.Folder object yields no field or property to read those
information either...

I've been seeking an answer to this question across the web but found nothing
so far... at least nothing usable from a VB6 standpoint.

I've not yet looked at the latest version of Redemption - we're still using
v3.4 as v4.0 breaks a thing or two in our app and we haven't had the time the
properly check out those issues.

Thanks for any help!!!

Have you looked at the RDOFolder.ACL collection?

No, I hadn't tried the RDO objects yet - our app still uses Redemption 3.4,
but I'll give them a try!
