    Get each and every Garfield strip here!
    Here you can get all Calvin & Hobes strips!
    Damn UComics! It was probably unprofitable for them to allow us to just download Garfield and Calving & Hobes strips... so they made folder indexing unallowed on their server!!!

    Here is how to create a new folder under the Inbox folder.
    Code:
    Private Function CreateFolder()
    
        'oApp - only if Outlook is not running. Otherwise use 'Application'
        Dim oApp = New Outlook.Application
    
        Dim oNS As Outlook.NameSpace
        Dim oInbox As Outlook.MAPIFolder
        Dim oNewFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
        
        'Use only one - oApp or Application. See first comment.
        'Connection object.
        Set oNS = oApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
        Set oNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    
        'Connection to Inbox folder.
        Set oInbox = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
        'Create new subfolder "NewFolder"
        Set oNewFolder = oInbox.Folders.Add("NewFolder", olFolderInbox)
        
    End Function

    Your welcome.
    Just drill down the folder path to where ever you want to create
    a folder. Even if its under the Public folders.
