question about AddStore method

[kf9150]

Hello,

After using AddStore method, a new folder "Personal Folders" is
automatically created in Outlook. Even if I rename that folder
programmingly, you don't see the change until close and restart
Outlook. Is there any other way?

Thank you!

You don't need to restart Outlook, just remove the store and add it again. See http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=962 for a code sample.

Hello,
I have the same problem in an addin I programmed, but my program uses the name of the Folder in order to find it among some others folders, so it should be better if Outllok works correctly.

I know that if I right click on the folder and choose "Properties", it displays the right name in the dialog box.

The simplest way to update the name is :
1. Right click the folder
2. Choose "Properties"
3. Click "Advanced options"
4. Without changing anything, please click twice OK
5. Outlook has updated the name of the folder

Do you know if it is a bug in Outlook, or if it is possible to update the name programmatically ?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Greetings
