Deleting Folders When Outlook Closes

[Odd Spot]

Does anyone know of an event to listen to that will fire early enough
in the shutdown process of Outlook to delete a folder, specifically a
search folder? When I try listening to the two com add-in events
(OnBeforeDeactivate and OnBeforeShutdown (i think those are the
names)), I get permission errors and the folders are still there when I
restart Outlook.

Thanks,
Jared

Such code needs to run when the last Explorer window shuts down. Those
events are too late.

Yup, that did it. I didn't realize there was a close event that could
be listened to on the Explorer due to a design time issue with the
Outlook Interop. (The Explorer has both an event "Close" and a method
"Close" and the IDE does not recognize the event).
