How do I copy an Item without using the move command in Outlook 2010 VBA?
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/outlook.mailitem.copy
Please refer to the above link first.
These two lines of VBA code works as follows:
1.The copy command duplicates myItem in myFolder, say myCopiedItem, and
2.the move command moves myCopiedItem to myNewFolder, and then
3.automatically deletes myCopiedItem from myFolder, and then
4.the deleted myCopiedItem is automatically trashed(moved) into the Junk folder.
FYI, 3 and 4 are not explicitly mentioned in the above link.
My questions are:
Q1. How do I copy myItem from myFolder to myNewFolder without making a duplicate copy? I do not want to make a duplicate copy, say myCopiedItem, in myFolder.
Q2. How do I copy myItem from myFolder to myNewFolder without using the move command? Using the move command seems to send myCopiedItem from myFolder into the Junk folder, due to the inherent delete & trash operations of 3 & 4, respectively.
I am using outlook 2010.

myCopiedItem.Move myNewFolder ' this also moves myItem in myFolder into the Junk folder!These two lines of VBA code works as follows:

Why not use the Copy To option:
There are two ways to do this.
1:
Right Click | Select Move | Select Copy To
2:
