Hi,

I have written attached code for creating distribution list and

adding/enumerating it's members. I want to put a check before creating

distribution list or adding members into existed distribution list.

1. If DL is exists then it should not create it again and it should

add member to existed DL.

2. If DL is not exists then it should create it and add member.

Thanks.

Dim DL As Outlook.DistListItem

Dim rcp As Outlook.Recipient

Set DL = Application.CreateItem(olDistributionListItem)

DL.DLName = "MyList"

Set rcp = Application.Session.CreateRecipient(userName)

rcp.Resolve

If rcp.Resolved = True Then

DL.AddMember rcp

End If

DL.Save
 
You need to go to every folder where a DL might exist, starting with the

default Contacts folder. You can then filter the Items collection for each

of those folders for distribution list items and see if any already exist

that match whatever criteria you are using to determine existence, such as

name.

You can filter the Items collections on the MessageClass property.
