Outlook 2003 - unread folder, linking a button to a subfolder

[Joe Blo]

In Outlook 2003,

#1 Is there a way to refresh the unread folder so that read
messages no longer apear? Right now I have to click closed the unread
folder and click it again

#2 Is there a way to create a toolbar button that goes directly to
a subfolder?
Thanks

#1: That's as good a refresh method as you'll find.

#2: You'd need to write VBA code to do that. If you're new to Outlook VBA
macros, these web pages should help you get started:

To get a non-default folder, you need to walk the folder hierarchy using the
Folders collections or use a function that does that for you. See
