Say I have a meeting request to a distribution group. In order to see
the meeting response I will have to manually expand the group. How
could I do it using VBA?

To be specific, I have a DL as Recipient. I want to resolve the
meeting response status for each of the member inside the DL.
 
Loop through the MeetingRequest.Recipients collection to find your DL and
get a Recipient object for it; then you can access the DL's members using
the Recipient.AddressEntry.Members collection.

So I retrieve the member of the DL in AddressEntry.Member. Isn't this
just a AddressEntries collection that does not have meeting response
stored anywhere? How do I retrieve the meeting response then?
 
The Recipient.MeetingResponse status property will tell you. Since you
obtained the Recipients collection from the MeetingRequest item, it tags
specific info for each recipient in that meeting. A Recipients collection
can be obtained from many items, but MeetingResponse is only relevant to
MeetingRequest items.
