There is no size property you could use to find the size of a folder or PST
file from Outlook macro code. You'd be better off if you know the file path to that PST file to use the Win32 API or Windows Scripting or some other interface to read the file size from the file system. -- 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 "Tony WONG" wrote in message ... i wish to write a VBA to check the archive file size at each Outlook startup. i cannot locate the object of the archive file. anyone knows about it.

Thank you for your clarification.
i also think so. The difficulties to me is that different workstations save pst file at different places. anyway, thanks a lot. "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" ...

A very sneaky method is to parse out the PST file path from the StoreID
property. If you look at Item.Parent.StoreID or Folder.StoreID, using a tool such as OutlookSpy or MFCMAPI it's a binary array. If you view it as text you will see the file path and name of the PST file embedded in that StoreID. -- 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 "Tony WONG" wrote in message ...
