How can I get all items from a specific calendar (for a specific date). Lets say for instance that I have a calendar with a recurring item every Monday evening. When I request all items like this:
CalendarItems = CalendarFolder.Items;
CalendarItems.IncludeRecurrences = true;
I only get 1 item...
Is there an easy way to get all items (main item + derived items) from a calendar? In my specific situation it can be possible to set a date limit but it would be cool just to get all items (my recurring items are time limited themselves).
I'm using the Microsoft Outlook 12 Object library (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook).
I've studied the docs and this is my result: I've put a time limit of one month hard-coded, but this is just an example.
public void GetAllCalendarItems()
{
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application oApp = null;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.NameSpace mapiNamespace = null;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MAPIFolder CalendarFolder = null;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Items outlookCalendarItems = null;
oApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application();
mapiNamespace = oApp.GetNamespace("MAPI"); ;
CalendarFolder = mapiNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderCalendar);
outlookCalendarItems = CalendarFolder.Items;
outlookCalendarItems.IncludeRecurrences = true;
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem item in outlookCalendarItems)
{
if (item.IsRecurring)
{
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.RecurrencePattern rp = item.GetRecurrencePattern();
DateTime first = new DateTime(2008, 8, 31, item.Start.Hour, item.Start.Minute, 0);
DateTime last = new DateTime(2008, 10, 1);
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem recur = null;
for (DateTime cur = first; cur <= last; cur = cur.AddDays(1))
{
try
{
recur = rp.GetOccurrence(cur);
MessageBox.Show(recur.Subject + " -> " + cur.ToLongDateString());
}
catch
{ }
}
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show(item.Subject + " -> " + item.Start.ToLongDateString());
}
}
}
