asp_cdo thread: How to create a Hidden Folder in CDO


Message #1 by "Dante Tang" <dante.tang@s...> on Tue, 13 Nov 2001 09:57:07
I would like to create a hidden folder to store the configuration 

information of my CDO application. Does anyone know how to do so?



Any comment or advice are highly appreciated. Thanks very much in advance.

Assuming you are talking about CDO 1.21, there is AFAIK no way to create

a hidden folder in the standard folder tree (that's what you see with

Outlook). There is, however, a place hidden from the Outlook client

where e.g. custom views and more is stored and I think you can create a

folder there.



To examine this store things you can either use the MDB viewer

application (it's on the Exchange 5.5/2000 Server CD) or OutlookSpy

(http://www.dimastr.com/outspy/).

Thanks for your reply. :)



Yes, I am using CDO 1.21. And I believe the hidden store you mentioned is 

the best choice. (um... actually I think it is the only way to do so...)



I have installed OutlookSpy in my Outlook 2000 client, but I don't know 

how to view this hidden store by using it. Would you please give me a hand?



Again, Thank you very much for your kindness advice.

To examine this hidden part of your mailbox store with OutlookSpy:



1. Hit "IMsgStore" at the OutlookSpy toolbar

2. Click on "Open Root Container"

3. Select "GetHierarchy Table"



Now you'll see what gems Outlook is hiding from you ;-)



To access those stuff with CDO 1.21 check

http://www.cdolive.com/formpropertyviewer.htm. It's a sample Outlook

form which shows how to read the personal forms library entries (which

are stored at the same place)
