Just doing a bit of discover at the moment as this came up in a what-if
converstation this morning...

When a user has selected multiple items in an inbox, how can I iterate
through each using code?

We're discussing implementing custom code that iterates through the items
that a user has selected in an mailbox and then forward each item selected to
an email account as a separate item. Using right-click forward is not an
option as it would the items as attachments to a single email. Selecting a
single message and then clicking forward is not an option due to the volume
of emails that we're working with. Rules aren't an option since the person
who will receive the emails can change. The idea is to help automate the
forwarding of the emails - its a generic email account that we're working
with if you haven't guessed.

Use the Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection collection

Thx.

....and I believe that you helped me out sometime ago with using a TreeView
control in Access. Still using the code and works like a charm.
