SYMPTOMS
The Folders.Item statement returns the wrong item under the Public Folder's collection.



RESOLUTION
Instead of relying on the "folder tag_name" for the Folders.Item statement, use the index of the folder under that collection.



STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
The following code illustrates the problem described above: Set objSession = CreateObject("MAPI.session") objSession.Logon

Set objInfoStores = objSession.InfoStores Set objInfoStore = objInfoStores.Item("Public Folders") Set objRootFolder = objInfoStore.RootFolder Set objFolders = objRootFolder.Folders Set objfolder = _ objFolders.Item("All Public Folders") '.Item(2) out of 2

Debug.Print objfolder.Name ' returns .Item(1) "Favorites"
