Cannot Create Folder -- VB.NET

[Randy Given]

Last chance for VB.NET on this one. I tried another way and got errors,
also am with this approach. Googling turns up more people with same problem,
but no solution.

This works under my login. I try under another login and it fails. In the
other login, I can open the PST and read it, add to it, delete from it,
etc., but this will not work programmatically. The kicker is that the
similar code works fine under VB6 using the same PST source and destination
and same login.

In the following code, I get the error at the "Folders.Add" that it
cannot create the folder. The source is a normal PST. The destination is a
shell or template that has only Deleted Items and Search Folders. This
folder is supposed to create the appropriate folder.

Any ideas? If not, it's VB6 for this puppy.

Catch ex As Exception

Finally
FreeComObject(itemCopy)
FreeComObject(itemToBeAdded)
FreeComObject(copyFolder)
FreeComObject(itemParent)
End Try

End Function
