I've been searching for an answer but cannot find it. I have a macro which fires whenever an appointment is added to the calendar.

It scans the subject, location and body fields and looks for a number of strings in an array.

If it finds a match it adds an all day appointment to the calendar on the correct date, with the string as the subject.

My problem is I am using "olkView.GoToDate olkAppt.Start" to goto the correct date but if the user has the calendar set to Week view then the appointment is always created on the Monday.

How do I switch the calendar to Day view so when I then execute the goto date code and get the right day/date. I then need to switch the calendar back to the original view.

Thanks!
 
Is there a reason you need to go to date and can't just get the date from the appointment that triggers the macro?

See View Object (Outlook) for some samples - i think this works in 2007, but i could be wrong. If it's not in the object model, then its new to outlook 2010.
 
Thanks Diane - I was using a generic "CreateAppointment" routine which I have now adapted thanks to your suggestion.
