Example

This Microsoft Visual Basic/Visual Basic for Applications example minimizes all open explorer windows. It uses the Count property and Item method of the Explorers collection to enumerate the open explorer windows.

Sub MinimizeWindows()
    Dim myOlApp As New Outlook.Application
    Dim myOlExp As Outlook.Explorer
    Dim myOlExps As Outlook.Explorers
    Set myOlExps = myOlApp.Explorers
    For x = 1 To myOlExps.Count
            myOlExps.Item(x).WindowState = olMinimized
    Next x
End Sub

If you use VBScript, you do not create the Application object, and you cannot use named constants. This example shows how to use the WindowState property using VBScript.

For x = 1 To Application.Explorers.Count
    Application.Explorers.Item(x).WindowState = 2
