VBA to open an outlook data file

[Matchless]

My main Outlook.pst file is on my desktop and I have a wireless
network to my laptop. If I am away from home, I download my messages
into Outlook on my laptop and then, when the network is re-
established, open the Outlook.pst file on my desktop in Outlook on my
laptop and transfer the messages across.

Going through the actions of "file, open, outlook data file etc." is
tedious and time wasting and I would like to create a macro to do
this.

I've tried to find a VB code for "file open" but have been
unsuccessful. I think the coding must be more complex and would
appreciate some advice.

I hope I have selected the correct forum. If not, could someone
please advise which forum I should use.

Best Regards
John

Take a look at the Namespace.AddStore method. It's very simple to use.

There is a newsgroup specifically for general Outlook programming issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba

Thanks Sue, that was just what I wanted. Worked a treat.
