Example

This Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example uses the GetDefaultFolder method to return the MAPIFolder object that represents the default Calendar folder for the current user. It then uses the Find and FindNext methods to locate all the appointments that occur today and display them in a series of message boxes.

Sub DemoFindNext()
    Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
    Dim tdystart As Date
    Dim tdyend As Date
    Dim myAppointments As Outlook.Items
    Dim currentAppointment As Outlook.AppointmentItem
    Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set myNameSpace = myOlApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    tdystart = VBA.Format(Now, "Short Date")
    tdyend = VBA.Format(Now + 1, "Short Date")
    Set myAppointments = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar).Items
    Set currentAppointment = myAppointments.Find("[Start] >= """ & tdystart & """ and [Start] <= """ & tdyend & """")
    While TypeName(currentAppointment) <> "Nothing"
       MsgBox currentAppointment.Subject
       Set currentAppointment = myAppointments.FindNext
Wend
End Sub
