Does anyone know how to find the location of a folder?

I accidently moved a folder to another folder within outlook, and I can't
find it. I have tried to search for it. I can find emails within the
folders I'm looking for, but the search doesn't tell me what parent folder
the subfolder is in. Any ideas on how to find where subfolders are located?
Thanks J.R. Rouse

use a search engine that searches email - just not outlook's. Windows
Desktop search, when searching from windows, will show the path as will
google's desktop search along with others.

Open the email, then run this macro (which you had copied before to the VBA
editor, ThisOutlookSession module) by pressing alt+f8:

Publis Sub FindMe()
Dim Mail as Outlook.MailItem
Dim F as Outlook.Mapifolder
Set Mail=Application.Session.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem
Set F=Mail.Parent
Set Application.Session.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder=F
End Sub
