All,

I stumbled across the following problem while trying to create an
address-updater for outlook's contacts:

When i create a new sub-contact-folder, the folder isn't marked as
addressbook.
Meaning, outlook doesn't recognize the newly added names when typing
them in a new mail's To:-field. I can solve this problem by checking
the "Show this folder as an E-mail address book" box on the 2nd tab of
the folder's properties, but that's not sufficiant. My updater-app is
supposed to do it's work without any user's intervention, so i want to
change this option using vbscript.

Does anyone know what (properties) i need to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance!

Basz
 
You will need Outlook 2002 or 2003, which support a
MAPIFolder.ShowAsOutlookAB property.
