SenderName Value
 

Is there a way to get the SenderName Value via code?

From what I can tell, this is trapped behind some of the security features
in Outlook.

I am wanting to reference this value so I can utilize it in an effort to
make an archiving macro.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

There is a very easy way to do this.

Just save the email message to a file. There will be a line in the
file "Sender: Fred J. Muggs " plus the sender's email. Use the split
command on the line with a colon as the separator.

Take a look at the file and there will be a number of fields in there.
With a little program to loop through the fields in the text file, you
may be able to get everything you need very easily.

By using the spilit command and the resulting array, you will get the
field name and the field value in the array. Then, you can process
each field as you like.

Depending on your needs, it can be a good solution.

Outlook version?

I am designing it at home in Outlook 2002, but plan on using it at work for
Outlook 2003.

Code environment for your project?

VBA (and VBS if needed).

Greg,

I appreciate your feedback, but I wasn't planning on saving the email to a
file outside of Outlook.

My plan is to be able to select one or more emails and click on a button (to
fire a macro) and have these emails sent to their appropriate backup folder
in my Personal folder list. For example:

If I select and email from John Brown, and then click on this button. I
would expect this email to be moved to my personal folder "2007" and into a
subfolder labeled "John Brown".

If someone has already invented the wheel with respect to what I am needing,
I would greatly appreciate some code snippets (VBA preferably).

TIA...

Outlook 2002 VBA will give you security prompts, but Outlook 2003 won't, as long as you derive all objects from the intrinsic Application object.

Greg's suggestion doesn't help, BTW, because the SaveAs method triggers a security prompt.

Here is some code I found and altered a bit on the web from Eric Legault -
B.A, MCP, MCSD, Outlook MVP. My problem is not knowing how to reference the
subfolder I need due to these security items I have mentioned. Do you think
the code below should work for Outlook 2003? If not, could you make a
suggestion.

My biggest concern is this line: "Set objFolder =
Outlook.Session.Folders("2007" & objItem.SenderName)"
How do I reference a subfolder in my personal folders list with the variable
"SenderName"?

Session.Folders returns the collection of top-level folders, i.e. all the individual .pst files or mailboxes. To get a non-default folder, you need to walk the folder hierarchy starting with that collections or use a function that does that for you. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getfolder.htm

I should have mentioned that. You have to deal with the security
prompt. Just do a search to find Sue's articles on that.

You mean this statement? (Please, please tell us which statement is causing problems rather than giving a line number.)

Set objFolder = Outlook.Session.Folders("2007").Folders(objItem.Se nderName)

First, there's no object named Outlook in your code.

Second, you already have a Namespace object through which you can access the Folders collection. You instantiated it with this statement:

Set objNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")

Therefore, the correct statement, assuming you have a .pst file with the display name 2007, would be:

Set objFolder = objNS.Folders("2007").Folders(objItem.SenderName)

Sue,

It appears that the item that is throwing the error is "objItem.SenderName"
in the same line you referenced. It is saying "Object variable or With block
variable not set". Am I not referencing this value correctly? What is the
appropriate method to call this value?

TIA,

Here is some code I found and altered a bit on the web from Eric
Legault -
B.A, MCP, MCSD, Outlook MVP. My problem is not knowing how to reference
the
subfolder I need due to these security items I have mentioned. Do you
think
the code below should work for Outlook 2003? If not, could you make a
suggestion.

My biggest concern is this line: "Set objFolder =
Outlook.Session.Folders("2007" & objItem.SenderName)"
How do I reference a subfolder in my personal folders list with the
variable
"SenderName"?

Outlook 2002 VBA will give you security prompts, but Outlook 2003 won't,
as
long as you derive all objects from the intrinsic Application object.

Greg's suggestion doesn't help, BTW, because the SaveAs method triggers a
security prompt.

I am designing it at home in Outlook 2002, but plan on using it at work
for
Outlook 2003.

VBA (and VBS if needed).

Is there a way to get the SenderName Value via code?

From what I can tell, this is trapped behind some of the security
features
in Outlook.

I am wanting to reference this value so I can utilize it in an effort
to
make an archiving macro.

SenderName Value
 

Your code doesn't set objItem to a value until it gets to the For Each loop. Therefore, any statements referring to that object need to be inside the loop.

Sue,

It appears that the item that is throwing the error is "objItem.SenderName"
in the same line you referenced. It is saying "Object variable or With block
variable not set". Am I not referencing this value correctly? What is the
appropriate method to call this value?

TIA,

You mean this statement? (Please, please tell us which statement is causing
problems rather than giving a line number.)

Set objFolder =
Outlook.Session.Folders("2007").Folders(objItem.Se nderName)

First, there's no object named Outlook in your code.

Second, you already have a Namespace object through which you can access the
Folders collection. You instantiated it with this statement:

Set objNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")

Therefore, the correct statement, assuming you have a .pst file with the
display name 2007, would be:

Set objFolder = objNS.Folders("2007").Folders(objItem.SenderName)

Sue,

Can you tell me what is wrong with my code below? I cannot seem to figure
out the right way to reference the SenderName value. It keeps throwing the
following error for line 9.

Session.Folders returns the collection of top-level folders, i.e. all the
individual .pst files or mailboxes. To get a non-default folder, you need
to
walk the folder hierarchy starting with that collections or use a function
that does that for you. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getfolder.htm

Sorry to be thick-headed, but I am still learning Outlook VBA. I find VBA to
be much easier in Excel.
