Moving last e-mail from inbox programmatically - Error 3704

[Guest]

Using MS Access to conduct operation in MS Outlook.
Operation removes attachments from e-mail, then moves e-mail to new folder.
When the LAST e-mail is moved and error is generated.

Error reads:
An unexpected error has occured
Please note and report the following information
Error Number: 3704
Error Description: Operation is not allowed when the object is closed.

Code is:
For j = nbxcount To 1 Step -1
Set Mailitm = inBox.Items(j)
Mailitm.Move fldr
Next j

Any corrections?

Thank you for your time,

IIRC, it's a known problem. I don't know of a workaround.

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

Sue,

Thank you for your response. I will adjust accordingly.

Thank you also for directions down the hall, I will seek to make good use of
your directions. I appreciate your many posts which I have read in the past.
