Hello,
i am trying to display a selected list of mail items by their created date.

it seems that the SORT method is not working on selected object.

any idea how to do it?

Thanks
David
 
CombinedBodyStr = ""
Set Sel = Application.Active.Explorer.Selection

Sel.Sort "[CreationTime]", True ' <-- THIS ONE FAILS

for each Item in Sel
CombinedBodyStr = CombinedBodyStr & Item.Body & VBcRLf
next

'Print the CombinedBodyStr to a text file

Ah, you're trying to use Sort on the Selection object. Selection always uses
whatever sort is present in the user interface. Even though it otherwise
acts like an Items collection, it doesn't support the Sort method like Items
does.
