    Thanks a lot for your quick response. It solved my problem.

    I was looking for a way to archive all items in selected folder, so selecting “Mailbox” is not allowed. For anyone looking here, I post some of my additions to your code:

     
      dim oFolder
      dim oMessages
    
      set oFolder = client.clientstate.selectedfolder
    
      if (oFolder.ObjType <> fgwMailbox) then
        set oMessages = oFolder.Messages
        for each Message in oMessages
          Message.Archived = true
        next
        set oMessages = nothing
      else
        msgbox "Not allowed here."
      end if
    
      set oFolder = nothing
    

    In real life, you would wrap some code around like status dialog a.s.o.

    BTW, as a longterm delphi programmer I am somewhat spoiled with code-completion and in-depth documentation. Are there any chances to get at least one of them into Formativ? I see there are a lot of documentation, but it is a bit complicated to find, what you are looking for.
