You have to cache the original value of the property or properties you are
interested in. Even if you handle Item.PropertyChange or Item.CustomPropertyChange you'd only get the name of the property that was changed and reading its value would return the new value, not the original value. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Simon Woods" wrote in message ... Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook] wrote: You can handle the ItemChange and ItemAdd events of the Items collection of that folder. When an item is saved or added in that collection you will fire those events. You can also monitor for items being opened (NewInspector event of the Inspectors collection) and handle the Write event to get changes before the save is made. That won't work with in-cell editing in a folder view however. Ken ... can I trouble you again ... You say that I can use the Write event to get changes before the save is made. I've got the event hooked up and firing okay. I've got the item which is about to be written so have the new value. I don't understand how you were thinking I'd get the current existing value of the item. I know I'm being a bit slow here. Thanks Simon |

That's how you'd get the currently opened new item, yes.
