Folders object (Outlook)

Contains a set of Folder objects that represent all the available Outlook folders in a specific subset at one level of the folder tree.

Remarks

Use the Folders property to return the Folders object from a NameSpace object or another Folder object.

Use Folders (index), where index is the name or index number, to return a single Folder object. Folder names are case-sensitive.

Example

The following Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example returns the folder named Old Contacts.

Set myNameSpace = Application.GetNameSpace("MAPI") 
 
Set myFolder = _ 
 
 myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts) 
 
Set myNewFolder = myFolder.Folders("Old Contacts")

The following Visual Basic for Applications example returns the first folder.

Set myNewFolder = myFolder.Folders(1)
