Paste this code into a standard module in Excel. You will need to
adapt it for your particular needs, however. Run the
GetApptsFromOutlook() sub and adjust the dates accordingly. You will
also need to set a reference to the Outlook object library and
(optionally) have Outlook open when running the code.
Enjoy,
