I've been able to get code working to create Calendar appointments. So far
I can't figure out how to check if an appointment already exists. I'm
totally stuck on this. Can someone please point me to somewhere that the
method is documented or perhaps some sample code?
 
The solution starts by considering criteria your application would use to determine if a particular appointment already exists. Once you figure that out, you'd move on to using the MAPIFolder.Items.Find method to search for an item with those criteria. If you're using date criteria, it can be a little tricky. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/finddate.htm for sample code.

Thank you very much Sue. This is just the sort of "jumpstart" I needed.
