easy way to do a simple macro?

[Tim]

Hi I want to make a couple of easy macros, ie delete files from one
folder, then paste into folder from another.

I know nothing about macros, is there not a simple way of starting macro,
then doing the movements you want, while macro records them, similar to
excel. thanks tim

Correct. Outlook has no macro recorder. It does, however, have an extensive object model and detailed help files. Plus, there are hundreds of available code samples on the Internet and tutorials like those at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vb.htm#tutorials . I've seen people pick up the basics in a very short period of time.

FYI, 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
