Hello!
I automate some things using Quick Steps and Rules.
- For some mail items I use a Quick Step to automatically Flag Message for follow-up.
- I also have a rule that in some conditions flags an incoming email for follow-up.

In any or all of those cases I would like to know if I could use VBA to prompt me to choose the custom due date/reminder date instead of the built-in Today, Tomorrow, This Week, etc.

Thank you.
 
You can add an action to the rule to run a script. For Quick Steps that's not possible, A script that can be run by a rule looks like this
Code: 
sub whatever(item as mailitem)
'your code here
end sub
 
Thanks for replying! My follow-up (which should have been my initial) is: can anyone point me to some code that is at least part of the way toward flagging a message with a prompt to choose the date? Thank you.
