Hi!

I know how to access via VBA the contacts in the 'Personal Folder'.

But if I open a new Datafile, I don't know to access the contacts there?

Who could help me?
Thx a lot.

Greets, Oli

Oli, you can simply walk through the folder hierarchy.
Application.Session.Folders gives you all opened, visible top folders.

Thank you very much Michael!

So I wrote this code:
It works, but how do I select the contact folder in the dasistes Folder?

Thanks a lot.

Public Sub test()
Dim toplevelfolder As Object
Dim dasistes As Object
Dim myNamespace As Outlook.NameSpace

For Each toplevelfolder In Application.Session.Folders
'MsgBox toplevelfolder.Name
If InStr(1, toplevelfolder.Name, "form", vbTextCompare) Then

Set dasistes = toplevelfolder
MsgBox "JETZT"
End If


Next toplevelfolder

MsgBox dasistes.Name

'MsgBox dasistes.Name
End Sub

You need to know the folder's name and its path. For instance:

Path="Persönliche Ordner\Kontakte"
set dasistes=toplevelfolder("Kontakte")

Path="Persönliche Ordner\Kontakte\Familie"
set dasistes=toplevelfolder("Kontakte").Folders("Famil ie")

Depending on the case, maybe the user can/should select the folder. That's
possible with the Pickfolder function.

Once, you have the folder, and if it's always the same, you could store its
EntryID and StoreID and from then on get the reference via GetFolderFromID
function.
