Back up Macro
Hi,
I am new to this so please bear with me. Is it possible to create a macro that would back up all folders to a destination folder on the desktop or a cd burneron the closing of Outlook? In my work group, we are not allowed to delete emails so i am looking for an organized method to save emails so current folders can be purged on a monthly basis yet maintain a back up copy.Can this be done? Thanks

Back up Macro
There's no need to run any code. You can download a free tool from Microsoft
that will prompt you to backup on a defined schedule: Download details: Outlook 2003 Add-in: Personal Folders Backup: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...F-5A6322F4FD01 Microsoft Office Assistance: Using the Microsoft Outlook Personal Folders Backup tool: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...875321033.aspx -- Eric Legault (Outlook MVP, MCDBA, MCTS: Messaging & Collaboration and SharePoint Infrastructure) Try Picture Attachments Wizard for Outlook: http://www.collaborativeinnovations.ca Blog: http://blogs.officezealot.com/legault/ "jk" wrote: Hi, I am new to this so please bear with me.

Back up Macro
Again, no code needed. Use the AutoArchive functionality. Each folder can
have it's own unique AutoArchive settings; when it's run, messages older than a specified date can be autmoatically deleted or moved to a backup .pst file. To configure this, use "File - Archive", "Tools - Options - Other - AutoArchive" or "Tools - Mailbox Cleanup". -- Eric Legault (Outlook MVP, MCDBA, MCTS: Messaging & Collaboration) Try Picture Attachments Wizard for Outlook: http://www.collaborativeinnovations.ca Blog: http://blogs.officezealot.com/legault/ "jk" wrote: Thanks, i will try that.Is there an automated method to purge the folders of old email which are about 8 to 10 folders on a schedule as well?
