Testcomplete 14 with Outlook 2016

Hi,  I have this error:   TypeError: NamespaceMAPI.Folders is not a function   with testcomplete 14 with Outlook 2016 with the following script. It worked in testcomplete12 with Outlook 2014.  ...

    The way we do this in our scripts is to use the mapiNamespace.Stores to find the account we're after:

        var testEmailStore;
        for (var i = 0; i < mapiNamespace.Stores.Count; i++) {
            store = mapiNamespace.Stores.Item(i + 1);
            // Ignore case of DisplayName, it can be entered in differently
            if (store.DisplayName.toLowerCase() == ProjectSuite.Variables.testEmailDisplayName.toLowerCase()) {
                Log.Message("Found email store for '" + ProjectSuite.Variables.testEmailDisplayName + "'")
                testEmailStore = store;
            }
        }

     

    We can then use testEmailStore to get the folders:

        var inbox = testEmailStore.Folders("Inbox")

    The whole Outlook OLE stuff is really annoying, there are so many ways to do one thing and most of the examples are in VB and are very old.
