Hi again,

I must be stupid ... why doesn't following code add strTag-Item into
strParameter-Folder

***
Set Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder =
Application.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetFolderFromID(strParameter)
Set objNewItem =
Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder.Items.Add(strTag)
objNewItem.Display
***

going throug this lines CurrentFolder of the ActiveExplorer is always set to
the folder I want ... but folder (also FullFolderPath) of objNewItem will be
set to the one which has been activated b e f o r e running the code.
Whats wrong with it?

thanx again
michael
 
I think you make things more complicated than they actually are. Why not
use:
Set objNewItem =
Application.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetFolderFromID(strParameter).Items.Add(str
Tag)
I take for granted that the rest of your code is right and that you have a
valid folderID and that strTag has a meaningfull content. It's not easy to
debug out of a fragment of code.

it works you are absolutely right ...

but what (the hell *smile*) is wrong with my code?

Why isn't it possible to reference at the current folder when I do Set
CurrentFolder to the folder I need?
