Is there a way to use Find, Restrict and Sort without referencing the
translated property name.  For instance in Spanish the following must be
used:

      Call objItems.Sort("Recibido", True)
      Set objResItem = objItems.Find("[Categoras] = ''SomeCategory'")

While in English you need to use:

      Call objItems.Sort("Received", True)
      Set objResItem = objItems.Find("[Categories] ='SomeCategory'")

This means that for a script to execute we must know the translated values
for each language for the properties we use.

There must be a better way.

Thanks in advance,
Alan

Not that I know of using the Outlook object model. You could use CDO
and use CDO property tags, those should mostly be language
independent. You can set a MessageFilter object on the Messages
collection of a folder to get a restricted collection.

Categories would be a special case however, since it is a multivalued
property that would be treated as a Variant array. To see how to read
categories using CDO see
