Exporting Folder

[Matt]

Can someone give me some help on exporting a folder in outlook 2003?
One problem, the folder I am trying to export is not under my local
mailbox. Is this even possible? Also, if possible, I would like to
automate this process. Any clue on how to start this project would be
helpful.

Thanks,

Matt

File | Import and Export

One problem, the folder I am trying to export is not under my local
mailbox. Is this even possible?

Who can say, without knowing what location you're referring to?

Also, if possible, I would like to automate this process.

Automate in what fashion?

The folder is in another users mailbox. I have access to view the
mailbox but it does not appear in the export box.

I simply want to have the email addres, subject, and body dumped into a
file. This is all I mean by automation.

You have two options:

1) Copy all the items in that folder into a folder in your own mailbox or in a .pst file, then use File | Import and Export to export from that new folder.

2) Write VBA code to perform the export; see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm#export
