Outlook Sharepoint Calendar stssync

[Sean McPoland]

Hi all,

I want to automate various processes through outlook to the Shared
Calendar in Sharepoint Services, using various bits of code I have found
around...I have come up with the following very basic Sub and Function
(where the meat is):

every time I run it however I get error Number: -2147352567 with
message: Invalid shared folder.

can anyone help? I think I've done everything right, just can't get past
the error...

the specific lines =

cro="stssync://tripleX/RBITCSPS/Lists/Calendar/calendar.aspx"
Set MAPIFolder = MAPISession.OpenSharedFolder(cro, Null, Null, Null)

Many thanks in advance
regards
Sean

This is a WebCal folder on SharePoint? Do you have permissions on the
folder?

Why are you using that NameSpace logon? Outlook can't change logons when
it's running. You also shouldn't be using NameSpace.Logoff.
