Outlook Mail Item Selection Change

[laidbak]

I'm attempting to call a function after each change in selection.

I know there must be an event that fires when I select a new mail message or open or read a mail message.

I tried this:
Private WithEvents olInboxFolder As Explorer

then I used the function:
olInboxFolder_SelectionChange()

This doesn't work. I tried all the functions in the drop down. None seem to get called.

What am I doing wrong?

Did you assign your handler to an explorer?

Set olInboxFolder = olApp.ActiveExplorer
or
Set olInbox = olNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set olInboxFolder = olInbox.GetExplorer()

There are some instances where the Selection_changed event doesnt fire, depending on they type of folder. Jon Hawkins
