Can I search for a FOLDER

[kikilein1]

Hi,

Is there a way to search for a FOLDER in Outlook (2002)?
If I have hundreds of sub folders within folders and
forgot where I put one specific folder, is there a way to
search for this folder? I seem to be able to search for e-
mail items in specific folders but not for folders
themselves.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Nope, you can't search by folder. Advanced Find has an "In folder" option on
the advanced tab you could use to find all messages in the folder (search
the entire mailbox), but you won't find the folder path.
