Hi,

Can I use VBA to fulfil the following task?

I use outlook to read the corporate email from the exchange server.

Before I close Microsoft outlook, all the corporate email will
forward/redirect to the other email automatically.

Then, the forwarding will be cancel automatically when the outlook open
again.

Thank you.

To do that, you'd have to create a server-side forwarding rule. Outlook 2007 is the first version with full programmatic access to rules. In earlier versions, it's theoretically possible with a separate Rule.dll component and CDO 1.21 -- see http://www.outlookcode.com/archive0/d/exstech.htm

How about...If I have already set the out-of-office assistance to forward
the email to another email address; can I auto-change to out of office when
my outlook is shut down?

Only by using CDO 1.21; there should be code at http://www.cdolive.com/cdo5.htm
