The idea sounds good – could you give me more details of how I could make the rule?

Try this code (I think I got it from Slipstick, but I can’t find it there now.):

Sub File_Sent_Items()

    Dim objNS As NameSpace
    Dim objFolder As MAPIFolder
    
    If Item.SaveSentMessageFolder = "Sent Items" Then
    Set objNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Set objFolder = objNS.PickFolder
    If TypeName(objFolder)  "Nothing" Then
        Set Item.SaveSentMessageFolder = objFolder
    End If
    Set objFolder = Nothing
    Set objNS = Nothing

    End If
End Sub

It shows you a nice dialogue box for you to file the item, you can even make a new folder if you want. If you click cancel the item goes into sent items – you could change the code to put items into deleted items if they are not sent to another folder. Hope that helps.

Anyone want to help me with my filing question?

Sorry about the typo in the original post –

I would like to be able to run the dialogue box only if there is no rule for the item – eg it ends up in sent items. I had trouble finding somewhere in the Outlook Object Model that would trigger when a message is put in sent items or after rules have been run.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

As an Record management & archives minor in my Bachelor of Science (Communication and Information Technology)/Bachelor of Science (Library Technology), I am concerned to hear of the bug/omission.

ODMA has been the main way the RMS (records management) and DM (document management) applications have been able to work seamlessly with other programs. With the rise of e-mail as a business tool and Outlook as a personal information management tool it would seem that it is vital that Outlook is ODMA aware.

I run Office 2000 with FP 2002 – it is fine. FP 2002 has some great features too.

It affects FrontPage drastically, anyone got a fix for that? (She says looking for the FrontPage forum)

The same thing happened to my computer when my brother installed Visual Studio.NET. I personally wouldn’t delete them. VS.NET probably put them there for a purpose

I don’t know what then are for though.

Have you tried asking the .NET forum? They probably know more about it than me.

You can also change the fonts using Tools – internet options – general tab – fonts button at the bottom of the tab from within IE to fix the problem while we are waiting for the patch. The font is still a bit big in Outlook though. This fix does mean all webpages with stylesheets are in Tahoma. But that is probably not a bad thing

Do you know what .NET services I’d need?

Sadly I don’t have Exchange server – but I’d love to be able to use Messenger over our home network.

I downloaded the file and it wants a password. Very disappointing after downloading the 11meg on a 33.6 K connection. Anyone know what happened?

Thanks for that Chris

I re-installed DOS network client and yes, it didn’t have NetBEUI or TCP/IP installed – just NWlink. So I intalled NetBEUI and now the 3.1 machine can see the XP box’s shared folders. Yippee!

I installed a generic 3.1 driver and my printer ‘wakes up’ when I print something but it doesn’t print anything. Any clues?

I’ve re-installed the DOS network client and I noticed that it didn’t have NetBEUI or TCP/IP installed – just NWlink. So now the 3.1 machine can see the XP box’s shared folders.

Installed the NetBEUI off the XP CD (under value add or some such folder – just as the readme.txt said) but…

I still can’t get the Win3.11 to see the XP box or vice versa (see this post for more details of what is and isn’t working)

Thanks for your suggestion Chris, I’ll try it. At the moment, I can’t even get the computer to see //XPbox/shared folder.

(BTW what does CDN stand for)
