Hi Guys,

I am trying to finish some office automation task with VB6. After I checked some sample code, I found that some code use the Outlook.Folder to represent a folder in outlook, such as inbox, calender and so on, while others use Outlook.MAPIFolder.

Question:
What's the difference between these two type?

Thanks for your helps.

BRs,
Ted

I was Googling around for an answer to this very same question. Where can I find an explanation of the difference and more importantly, which is best to use in an Outlook 2007 add-in?
