Hi Guys... I get errors when I try access any of the following fields in the
calendar folder...
Other like the subject and body etc... work fine.

**Method 'Duration' not supported by automation object.

What can I do????

Thanks Ian

var
outlookItem : OLEVariant;
count : integer;
begin
for count := 1 to currentFolder.items.count do
begin
outlookItem := currentFolder.items[count];

with dCalendar do
begin
Append;
outlookItem.allDayEvent;
outlookItem.Duration;
outlookItem.Location;
Post;
 
The most likely cause is that what you have is not an AppointmentItem at all, but some other kind of item. You CAN Check its Class property to confirm the item type.

outlookItem.class

I get method 'class' not supported by automation object. However, if I open
the record, using the default Outlook window for that specific message type,
it opens these records in the Appointment Window, so they have to be
appointments???

It looks like you're using Delphi and there is not much expertise for that
here. In VBA you should always get a value for outlookItem.Class, which
would tell you whether the generic Item object you are working with is an
AppointmentItem or something else. Have you tried posting about this in a
Delphi newsgroup?
