How do i access a specific folder in Outlook97 and all the mail messages inside it?
including access to the mail's attachment.

I use Outlook 2000 but I guess this code should work with Outlook 97 as well.

Private ol As Outlook.Application

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace
    Dim mfl As Outlook.MAPIFolder
    Dim omi As Outlook.MailItem
    Dim i%
    
    On Error Resume Next
    Set ol = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
    If Err Then
        Err.Clear
        Set ol = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    End If
    Set mfl = ol.GetNamespace("MAPI").Folders("NameOfTopFolder").Folders("NameOfSubFolder")
    For Each omi In mfl.Items
        MsgBox omi.Body
    Next
End Sub

The secret is to set the Outlook.MailItem. Experiment with that object.

Good luck!
