Greetings!

I'm still working out the kinks in my macro. Here's my latest issue. I was finding that after a short time, I couldn't delete the "Print" calendar folder.

After a lot of investigation I discovered that it is because the previous deletion had left the folder and its items in the Deleted Items folder.

My current code is:

Set objCalendar = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar)
Set printCal = objCalendar.Folders("Print")
printCal.Delete

Can you suggest a way to by-pass the deleted items folder so that it will delete correctly next time?

Best,

Jeanne ("Always Grateful") Goodman
 
i think it allows like 10 copies of the print calendar, then you need to empty deleted items.


Try something like this after deleting Print
Dim oDeletedItems As Outlook.Folder
Dim oFolders As Outlook.folders

Set oDeletedItems = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDeletedItems)
Set oFolders = oDeletedItems.Folders
oFolders.Item("Print").Delete


if that doesn't work, use this to delete all folders
Dim oDeletedItems As Outlook.Folder
Dim oFolders As Outlook.folders

Set oDeletedItems = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDeletedItems)
Set oFolders = oDeletedItems.Folders
For i = oFolders.Count To 1 Step -1
oFolders.Item(i).Delete
Next


ETA the dim statements

don't forget to set the Dim statements -
Dim oDeletedItems As Outlook.Folder
Dim oFolders As Outlook.folders


ETA: i updated the macro at Combine and Print Multiple Outlook Calendars with the code to delete the folder.
