MAPIFolder.DefaultItemType. It returns a 32-bit int that's a member of the OlItemType enum, for contacts you're looking for olContactItem which has a value of 2.

Hi all,

I'm trying to iterate thru all the MAPIFolders in my personal store and get the contacts one. How could I get the 'type' of a folder (say if it is a contacts folder, or an inbox, etc...)? Thanks a lot!

Best Regards!
Pablo
