Creating Top Level Folder within Outlook 2003
 

When you say top level folder do you mean one just below "Mailbox" and on a
level with Inbox?

Set ol = New Outlook.Application
Set ns = ol.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
Set folder = ns.GetDefaultFolder(6) 'Inbox
Set folder2 = folder.Parent
Set folder3 = folder2.Folders.Add("3 Year Retention", 6) 'new email folder

That would work as a VBScript. If you want to create a different type of
folder use a different value from the OlDefaultFolders enumeration.
