Outlook 2007: Easily find a folder accidentally dragged elsewhere?

[KerryL]

If you have lots of nested folders and accidentally drag a folder to another
folder, is there an easy way to locate the folder? I'm thinking of something
like doing an advanced find on a specific email, which can have the 'in
folder' column, then doing a function like in windows explorer 'open
containing folder'. For example, if I drag folder X into folder E, and all
my folders A-W have subfolders, how do I locate folder X again? Do I have to
expand all the folders and do a manual scan? Thanks!

Alas, I believe you do. Outlook has no "open containing folder", as far as
I can tell.

I'm having the same problem. I can search for - and find - messages in the
folder I can't find. I can then view the properties of that message which
indicate the message is in the folder, but it does not give the path to that
folder so I don't know where it is. So I can find messages in the folder,
but I can't move messages to it, because I don't know where it is. Grr.
There might be some crazy C# way to parse the tree or something...
