      • I am trying to change the SaveSentMessageFolder property of an Outlook mail item through VFP so that when my application sends an email it is saved in a specific folder (not the default 'Sent Items' folder). However when I try to change it (e.g. loMailItem.SaveSentMessageFolder = loFolder) , instead of changing the folder to which the sent item is saved, it renames the 'Sent Items' folder.

      • I'm looking for a way of determining if a local printer is shared. I've looked into APRINTERS(), ENUMPRINTERCONNECTIONS of WSCRIPT.NETWORK and a couple other places/things and not found a way of doing this. I know there has to be a way of checking, but again time limits are preventing me from looking for an extended period for a fix and again I turn to asking.
