I'm trying to find an appointment on or after a specific date (for this program today was chosen) in the current session of a single workstation.
I then want to extract the Subject line from the appointment and the Description and display them in a message box (for future error checking).
If possible I also want to count how many appointments are in a single day.
I'm having trouble setting the object as well as binding "i" to the correct item in Outlook's array. I say "Outlook's array" because in the base code I have oItems.Item(i) where i is an Item from some appointment in my calender at the designated number.
Maybe it would be better to use something else besides Item?
Or better yet find an item's location in the array that is relevant to the date that I'm restricting the search to?
Below is the old code before Dmitry's link.
Private Sub FindAppt()
Dim oItems As Items
Dim oItemOriginal As AppointmentItem
Dim Subject As String
Dim Descript As String
Set oItems = Outlook.Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar).Items
If oItems >= Format(Date, "mmmm dd yyyy") Then
Set oItemOriginal = oItems.Item(i)
End If
With oItemOriginal
Subject = .Subject
Descript = .FormDescription
End With
MsgBox (Subject & Description)
End Sub
New code. With the new approach should I be breaking up these array binding and array extraction pieces into separate "Subs"?
Sub FindAppt()
Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim tdystart As Date
Dim tdyend As Date
Dim myAppointments As Outlook.Items
Dim currentAppointment As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Dim SubjectArray(50) As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim DescArray(50) As Variant
Dim Excl As Excel.Application
Set myNameSpace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
'This line is Bonus, if you're just looking to start your search for today's_
date.
tdystart = VBA.Format(Now, "Short Date")
'This input works which means a user form with combo boxes will work or user input_
will work as long as user input conforms to VBA date formats.
'tdystart = "04/01/2014"
'This line is Bonus, if you're just looking for the day after and after_
appointments.
tdyend = VBA.Format(Now + 1, "Short Date")
'tdyend = VBA.Format(tdystart + 5, "Short Date")
Set myAppointments = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar).Items
myAppointments.Sort "[Start]"
myAppointments.IncludeRecurrences = True
Set currentAppointment = myAppointments.Find("[Start] >= """ & tdystart & """ and [Start] <= """ & tdyend & """")
While TypeName(currentAppointment) <> "Nothing"
MsgBox currentAppointment.Subject & " " & currentAppointment.FormDescription
While currentAppointment = True
For i = 0 To 50
SubjectArray(i) = currentAppointment.Subject
DescArray(i) = currentAppointment.FormDescription
ReDim Preserve SubjectArray(1 To Count + 1)
ReDim Preserve DescArray(1 To Count + 1)
Next i
Wend
Set currentAppointment = myAppointments.FindNext
Wend
End Sub
Private Sub Timecard()
Set Excl = Excel.Application
Dim i As Integer
Dim SubjectArray(byRef 50, byValue) As Variant
Dim DecArray (byRef,byvalue)
With Excl
.fPath = ("C:\FilePathName\Book1.xlsx")
Excl.Open
End With
For i = 0 To 50
Excl.Application.Activesheet.Range(i, 0) = SubjectArray(i)
Excl.Application.Activesheet.Range(i, 1) = DecArray(i)
Next
End Property
End Sub
