Errors when returning Outlook folder properties
I am trying to create a vbscript to go through users' Outlook folders and
return the paths to their PSTs. Set myolApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objNS = myolApp.GetNameSpace("MAPI") For Each objFolder in objNS.Folders wscript.echo objFolder.Name & ": " & objFolder.FolderPath Next This works fine for a few of the folders (Public Folders, Mailbox, etc), but before it hits the PSTs it errors: "Microsoft Office Outlook: The messaging interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook." Any ideas how I can get it to do all folders or even just the PSTs? Thanks!

Errors when returning Outlook folder properties
Where does it error out? You need to step your code and see what's going on
and where it's choking. At best the FolderPath for a PST file will be something like "\\Personal Folders". It won't be the file system path to where that PST file is stored. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Indeed FolderPath doesn't return much useful data. I ended up using a bit of
..StoreID hacking which gives the full path. Thanks "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: Where does it error out? You need to step your code and see what's going on and where it's choking.
