Search.Save method (Outlook)

Saves the search results to a Search Folder.

Syntax

expression.Save (SchFldrName)

expression A variable that represents a Search object.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Description
SchFldrName	Required	String	A string that represents the Search Folder name.

Remarks

Example

The following Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example searches the Inbox for items with Subject line equal to 'Test' and saves the results in a Search Folder. The AdvanceSearchComplete event procedure sets the Boolean blnSearchComp to True when the search is complete. This Boolean variable is used by the TestAdvancedSearchComplete() procedure to determine when the search is complete. The sample code must be placed in a class module such as ThisOutlookSession, and the TestAdvancedSearchComplete() procedure must be called before the event procedure can be called by Outlook.

Public blnSearchComp As Boolean 
 
 
 
Private Sub Application_AdvancedSearchComplete(ByVal SearchObject As Search) 
 
 MsgBox "The AdvancedSearchComplete Event fired" 
 
 blnSearchComp = True 
 
End Sub 
 
 
 
Sub TestAdvancedSearchComplete() 
 
 Dim sch As Outlook.Search 
 
 Dim rsts As Outlook.Results 
 
 Dim i As Integer 
 
 blnSearchComp = False 
 
 Const strF As String = "urn:schemas:mailheader:subject = 'Test'" 
 
 Const strS As String = "Inbox" 
 
 Set sch = Application.AdvancedSearch(strS, strF) 
 
 While blnSearchComp = False 
 
 DoEvents 
 
 Wend 
 
 sch.Save("Subject Test") 
 
End Sub
