VBA - Opening Windows folder ?

[NessPJ]

Hi there,

I'm using the following VBA to try and open a folder in Outlook. The code works in Excel but its not working for me in Outlook. Here's the code:

Sub OpenFolderTest() 
Dim Foldername As String
Foldername = "C:\Temp\"
Shell "explorer.exe" & " " & """ & Foldername & """, vbNormalFocus

Does anyone know how to make this work perhaps?

should be
Shell "explorer.exe" & " " & """" & Foldername & """", vbNormalFocus

or

Shell "explorer.exe" & " """ & Foldername & """", vbNormalFocus

Thanks for the tip.

I also found out that all/any macro's had to be allowed through the Trust Center settings in Outlook. Its working now.
