Autoarchive on startup

Is there anyway to tell Outlook 2002 to autoarchive folders on start up? Current setting only has autoarchive on every one day

By autoarchive on start up, the active working folders will have only current items; other older items will be swept to an archive folder

Idea?

Hi Kojenku,

Setting Outlook to Use a Custom Archive Location
Follow these steps to change the location and file name of your archived
items:


On the Tools Menu, click Options.
Click the Other tab, and then click AutoArchive.
In the Default Archive File box, type the path and file name for the
location where you want items archived. Be sure to use the .pst extension
in the file name.

Note the "AutoArchive every <n> days at startup" check box, where <n> is
the number of days. This determines how often AutoArchive occurs.
Click OK twice.
The next time Outlook successfully archives items, it creates the archive
file that you named in step 3 above. This new file contains all of your
archived items in the same folder structure.

Because the archive file is a PST file, you can view archived items either
by importing them, by using the Export And Import Wizard, or by adding the
archive personal folder file as a service in your profile.

If you choose to import the items, they move back to their original
location.

For more information about importing a PST file, please see the following
article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
195719 : OL2000: (CW) How to Back Up Outlook Data

If you choose to add the archive personal folder file to your profile, you
simply view the items from the archive folder.

Please let me know if i can be of futher assistance...
Thank You...

No. Once a day is the closest setting to what you want.
