Thanks Ken,
By the way i got the way to show the web page on the explorer window
of the folder ("Web Folder") on click of the button.
this is the C# Code
oFolder.WebViewURL ="
http://www.msdn.microsoft.com";
oFolder.WebViewOn = true;
Outlook.Application app = oFolder.Application;
Outlook.Explorer exp = app.ActiveExplorer();
//for now the folder is created inside Contacts Folder
exp.CurrentFolder =
appContext.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolder
s.olFolderContacts).Folders.Item("WEB Folder");
exp.Activate();
exp.Display();

Dim oFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Set oFolder = Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder
oFolder.WebViewOn = True
oFolder.WebViewAllowNavigation = True
oFolder.WebViewURL = <URL as string value>

Thanks Ken Slovak
But that doesn't show the page on the outlook window.
Rather just set the Home page property of the current folder.How ever on
reopening the outlook the web page is shown by default.
Is there anything else i need to do so that when i click a button the
web page is shown in the current folder.
Agains thanks a lot for providing the input.
Thanks in Advance

Right click on the folder you wish to display the webpage in and
select properties . Click on the Homepage tab and check the "Show
Homepage by Default for this folder". Now type in
http://msdn.microsoft.com in the address textbox.

That's the only way to show a Web page in Outlook, as the folder home
page. If you want to disable that at any point you set the Boolean
properties to False. To refresh the display you can use the Display
method of the Explorer or you might have to switch to another folder
as the ActiveExplorer and back again.

That horrendous DeveloperDex interface you are using doesn't place any
of the preceding thread into a post. Please do so manually.
Set oFolder = oOL.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set oTopFolder = oFolder.Parent
You can then create folders under Outlook Today (oTopFolder) using the
oTopFolder.Folders collection.
