    Dim olApp As Object
    Dim olNamespace As Object
    Dim olFolder As Object
    Dim olItem As Object
    Dim i As Integer
    
    ' Create Outlook application object
    Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    
    ' Get the MAPI namespace
    Set olNamespace = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    
    ' Get the Inbox folder
    Set olFolder = olNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(6) ' 6 represents the Inbox folder
    
    ' Loop through each item in the Inbox folder in reverse order
    For i = olFolder.Items.Count To 1 Step -1
        Set olItem = olFolder.Items(i)
        If olItem.Class = 43 Then ' 43 represents the olMail class (MailItem)
            ' Open the email
            olItem.Display
            
            ' Close the email without saving
            olApp.ActiveInspector.Close olDiscard
        End If
    Next i
    
    ' Clean up
    Set olItem = Nothing
    Set olFolder = Nothing
    Set olNamespace = Nothing
    Set olApp = Nothing
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
I amended the code as folllows and it works

Code:
 Sub CloseOutlookWithoutSaving()
    Dim olApp As Object ' Outlook.Application

    On Error Resume Next
    Set olApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
    On Error GoTo 0

    If Not olApp Is Nothing Then
        ' Close Outlook without saving files
        olApp.Quit
        Set olApp = Nothing
    End If
End Sub
