Remarks
To specify a date to go to in a current view, such as a CalendarView object, you should first obtain a View object for the current view by using _Explorer.CurrentView instead of MAPIFolder.CurrentView. The following code sample demonstrates how to perform this action.
Sub TestGoToDate()
Dim oCV As Outlook.CalendarView
Dim oExpl As Outlook.Explorer
Dim datGoTo As Date
datGoTo = "11/7/2005"
' Display the contents of the Calendar default folder.
oExpl = Application.Explorers.Add( _
Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder( -
Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderCalendar), _
Outlook.OlFolderDisplayMode.olFolderDisplayFolderOnly)
oExpl.Display()
' Retrieve the current view by calling the
' CurrentView property of the Explorer object.
oCV = oExpl.CurrentView
' Set the CalendarViewMode property of the
' current view to display items by day.
oCV.CalendarViewMode = Outlook.OlCalendarViewMode.olCalendarViewDay
' Call the GoToDate method to set the date
' for which information is displayed in the view.
oCV.GoToDate(datGoTo)
End Sub
private void TestGoToDate()
{
Outlook.CalendarView oCV;
Outlook.Explorer oExpl;
System.DateTime datGoTo;
datGoTo = DateTime.Parse("11/7/2005");
// Display the contents of the Calendar default folder.
oExpl = Application.Explorers.Add(
Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(
Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderCalendar),
Outlook.OlFolderDisplayMode.olFolderDisplayFolderOnly);
oExpl.Display();
// Retrieve the current view by calling the
// CurrentView property of the Explorer object.
oCV = (Outlook.CalendarView)(oExpl.CurrentView);
// Set the CalendarViewMode property of the
// current view to display items by day.
oCV.CalendarViewMode =
Outlook.OlCalendarViewMode.olCalendarViewDay;
// Call the GoToDate method to set the date
// for which information is displayed in the view.
oCV.GoToDate(datGoTo);
}
