How to skip SECOND Variable to run after receiving new mail in Outlook?
Private WithEvents Items As Outlook.Items
Public MyTrueFalse As Boolean
Private Sub Application_Startup()
Dim MyTrueFalse As Boolean 'Redundant?'
MyTrueFalse = True 'Defaults to False'
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Set olApp = Outlook.Application
Set objNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
' default local Inbox
Set Items = objNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Items
End Sub
Private Sub Items_ItemAdd(ByVal item As Object, ByVal MyTrueFalse As Boolean)
If MyTrueFalse Then GoTo DoThisAlso 'Example Only'
On Error Goto ErrorHandler
Dim Msg As Outlook.MailItem
If TypeName(item) = "MailItem" Then
Set Msg = item
' ******************
' do something here
' ******************
End If
DoThisAlso:
MsgBox "MyTrueFalse is: " & MyTrueFalse
ProgramExit:
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
Resume ProgramExit
End Sub
I am using the above code and working fine on the NEW EMAIL trigger (THANKS - Gautam Mainkar ( LINK ). However, I am trying to pass Boolean (True / False) along with the Items event trigger.
So I'm trying to say ... MyTrueFalse in Application_Startup (), so it is set ONLY ONCE and is passed whenever it Items_ItemAdd
starts at a new address.
I don't need another routine, just pass the MyTrueFalse boolean as set in Application_Startup ().
I tried several options for public settings and a few variables in the tab Items_ItemAdd
and nothing works. I hope someone can help me. Thanks to
