Hello,

I was forced to get a new OS (Win7/32) and new Outlook (2010 32bit) after my hard drive started threatening a catastrophic failure (click click beep beep beep).

I had a nifty macro in my old outlook that i re-installed in my new but it is not functioning completely.

For background, the only factory settings I have changed in OL are to attach an original when replying, replying to all or forwarding (to preserve attachments). I have enabled macros.

The macro should (did in Outlook 2003 and 2007):
1. Delete the original when replying, replying all, forwarding
2. Force a folder choice upon send

Item #2 is working, so I know the macro is at least trying to run. I assume some portion of the code just needs some 2010-style massaging. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This little tool has helped me keep my inbox under 100 items for years now. Very helpful since my inbox truncates, irretrievably at 30d age.

Macro:

' </DeleteOriginalWhenReply
Option Explicit

Private WithEvents ReplyButton As Office.CommandBarButton

Private WithEvents ForwardButton As Office.CommandBarButton

Private WithEvents ReplyAllButton As Office.CommandBarButton

Private WithEvents m_Inspectors As Outlook.Inspectors

Private m_Mail As Outlook.MailItem

Private Sub Application_Startup()
Set ReplyButton = Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars.FindControl(, 354)
Set ForwardButton = Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars.FindControl(, 356)
Set ReplyAllButton = Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars.FindControl(, 355)
Set m_Inspectors = Application.Inspectors

End Sub

Private Sub m_Inspectors_NewInspector(ByVal Inspector As Outlook.Inspector)
On Error Resume Next
If Not m_Mail Is Nothing Then
m_Mail.Delete
Set m_Mail = Nothing
End If

End Sub

Private Sub ReplyButton_Click(ByVal Ctrl As Office.CommandBarButton, _
CancelDefault As Boolean _

)
On Error Resume Next
If TypeOf Application.ActiveWindow Is Outlook.Explorer Then
Set m_Mail = Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1)
Else
Set m_Mail = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem
End If

End Sub

' </DeleteOriginalWhenReply
' </Assign Folder for Sent Messages
Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
If TypeOf Item Is Outlook.MailItem Then
Cancel = Not SaveSentMail(Item)
End If

End Sub

Private Function SaveSentMail(Item As Outlook.MailItem) As Boolean
Dim F As Outlook.MAPIFolder
If Item.DeleteAfterSubmit = False Then
Set F = Application.Session.PickFolder
If Not F Is Nothing Then
Set Item.SaveSentMessageFolder = F
SaveSentMail = True
End If
End If

End Function

' </Assign Folder for Sent Messages
Many many thanks and I hope once repaired this code can be useful to others as well. Both of these actions seem like things that could be factory-integrated into Outlook to reduce inbox size.

It should work in 2010 too. Put in some breakpoints and see if it hits them.

It's working in 2013 - even with inline compose (reading pane compose) and a lot of stuff won't work with it.

I'll fall on my pride sword here - breakpoints? I didn't write that original macro in it's entirety. It was originally only used for "reply" and i added "reply-all" and "forward". So, it was largely copy/paste (i'm good at that).

I'll do some searching for the breakpoint bit but if I don't post an update, i'd sure like some help.

Also, I have it all in one Project - VbaProject.OTM - ThisOutlookSession (Code) under Project1 just like i did in 2007. Did I need to split it up?

OK, so i figured out the breakpoint thing (that's cool).

it appears to be skipping over these two lines:
m_Mail.Delete
Set m_Mail = Nothing

they have little breakpoint buttons next to them but it hops from
If Not m_Mail Is Nothing Then

to
End If

And, the mail remains undeleted.
 
I goofed when I tested it - it was not working in Outlook 2013. I dropped a note to the guy who owns the site where I presume you got the macro from (he has one like it posted in his collection) - it looks like it should work but he'll know if there is something changed in outlook 2010 that would affect it. He's in Germany, so it might be tomorrow before I hear back.
 
Michael said its because command bars aren't supported in 2010 and he's going to update his page tomorrow. (I think what he means is the inspector cant identify the message because of changes to the command bar support.)

the original code VBOffice - Samples

Thanks. I look forward to seeing the edited code.
 
Just heard from him - it looks like it won't be updated for 2010 due to the complexity that would be required to track the referenced item. Sorry.
