Macro or Menu Help

[Paul]

Hello,

What I want to do is have it so when I select a message(s) in my inbox or
sent folder to have a button or menu that I can choose from that will copy
the message to a folder and move it to another folder. In essence I need to
file everything twice.

My thought is a macro with a botton on the toolbar labeled "Project 1". The
macro behind it would know to place a copy in the corporate folder for
Project 1 and move the original to my folder for Project 1. Ideally, I could
select multiple messages at once.

If I can get help with the basic macro, I can create multiple buttons for
the my various projects.

Thanks

Why would you need to store it twice? Wouldn't it be easier to work with
categories and Search Folders?

for a whole bunch of reasons including but limited to SEC regulations, and
remote access needs

You might start with the object browser (f2) in the VBA environment; switch
from <All libraries> to Outlook. The current selected items are in the
Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection, and the MailItem has a Move and Copy
function.

Simply select the mentioned methods and press f1 for help to get sample
code.
