Outlook Categories

[Richard]

Is there a way to un-select a specific category using
VBA/VBScript? I've been able to choose categories using
the Item.Categories="Newsletter, Christmas Card List" and
clear all categories with Item.Categories="", but how do
you un-select one category without clearing all of them?
I've tried Item.Categories<>"Newsletter", but that fails.

Thank you for your help,
Richard

Did you try Replace? As in:

strCat = Item.Categories
strCat = Replace(strCat, "Newsletter", "")
Item.Categories = strCat
