I wrote some codes in excel to extract information from a shared Outlook mailbox. But the codes sometime work sometimes don't although I didn't change anything. The error happen in line "Set InvFolder...". It can't find the subfolder. But it works sometimes. So weird

Can someone help me? Thanks

VBA Code:
Sub SaveInvoice()
Dim InvFolder As Outlook.Folder
Dim DoneFolder As Outlook.Folder
 
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objnSpace = objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")

Set InvFolder = objnSpace.Folders("mysharedmailbox").Folders("Inbox").Folders("subfolderX").Folders("Invoices received")
Set DoneFolder = objnSpace.Folders("mysharedmailbox").Folders("Inbox").Folders("subfolderY").Folders("Saved Invoices")
   
Debug.Print DoneFolder.Name; InvFolder.name

End sub
