Does anyone know/heard of a way to programmatically use
the Outlook Advanced Find feature?
According to numerous articles on the net, this is not
possible as there are no direct Outlook API calls to
access this window.
I have a work-around though: place an Outlook View Control
on a hidden form and access the 'Advanced Find' window
from the OVC. However, I'd rather not use the OVC unless I
really have to, hence my email to you guys!...

your right, there is no direct api call that you can kick off the advanced
find mechanism
however have you though about using the commandbars method?

might help
