Getting a folder give a path
Hello,
I am asking the folder path from the user as input in my progam via a config file. So the user enters something like "\\Mailbox - User\Inbox\TestMessageFolder". I then take this folder and analyse/filter the messages in "TestMessageFolder" I am stuck trying to access the folder via the obvious API in .NET. I tried 1. GetDefaultFolder - (Obviously) fails because the user entered folder, "TestMessageFolder", may not be default. 2. GetFolderFromID - Very confusing as the first parameter entryIDFolder can be passed as a string i.e. "\\Mailbox\Inbox\TestmessageFolder" but how can I get the second parameter ,entryIDStore. Thanks for any help that you can offer. - K.

Getting a folder give a path
You need to parse the folder path and then walk the folder hierarchy, starting with Namespace.Folders, getting each subfolder in turn from its parent Folders collection. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/getfolder.htm
