Script TellMeIndex () var int iIndex let iIndex = GetCurrentItem (GetFocus ()) SayString ("item number ") SayInteger (iIndex, 10) EndScript The above works in both outlook express, and windows explorer to simply just tell me the index number of a message or file/folder item, but, although it tells me the current control with focus is a listbox in outlook 2007, it always just says the index number is 0. Any ideas?
