Modules & VBA :: How To Get Access To Make Appointment To A Specific Calendar On Outlook
Dec 4, 2014
I have been able to successfully set up code to be able to add appointments to microsoft outlook based on data within a few forms that I have. My question is this however, how do I get access to make that appointment to a specific calendar on outlook. This calendar is a shared calendar. Currently, access is just adding the appointments to "My Calendar" and I could like it to place the appointment on "HVCalendar". a version of the code I found online is listed below:
Private Sub btnaddappttooutlook_Click()
'On Error GoTo ErrHandle
Dim olNS As Object
Dim olApptFldr As Object
' Save the Current Record
If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False
I am very new to VBA. I found some code that will allow me to add an appointment to my personal calendar with using access VBA and it works great. It also allows me to add an appointment to another calendar created under "My Calendars" folder.
I wanted to know how to change the code in order to add the appointment to the SHARED calendar instead.
The main folder is called "Shared Calendars" which is at the same level as the default "My Calendars" folder. Under the "Shared Calendars" folder the calendar is called "Tester".
Here is the code im using at the moment: I believe I have have to change the line of code that is in red but I don't know how.
Private Sub cmdAddAppt_Click() On Error GoTo cmdAddAppt_Err Dim outobj As Outlook.Application Dim outappt As Outlook.AppointmentItem Dim olNS As Outlook.NameSpace
I use the code below which creates an appointment in Outlook default calendar. I need to add a few lines to create the appointment to an alternative calendar in the same pst file. I need to choose between three calendars in which to create the appointment and plan to select the calendar name from a list on the form.
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim objAppt As Outlook.AppointmentItem Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objAppt = objOutlook.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
I have linked a Shared Calendar from MS Outlook in MS Access. The fields that I need which are Appointment/Meeting Date and Time are not there, only creation date/time. Is there anyway for me to get the Appointment/Meeting Date and Time from Outlook into the table?
I wanted to know if there's a way to implement a calendar in MS Access? In other words, I'd like to create a calendar that act the same way as the Outlook calendar? At first I tought about the calendar control 8.0, but we can't write anything in a square date of the calendar. So , I'm out of idea.
I've created a db for a group working on the repairs needed after Super storm Sandy. In the db I have captured arrival and departure dates of work teams coming in to support. How I can populate an Outlook calendar from the db table?
I currently can send emails from my form in Access 2000. What I would like to do is send from the form an appointment that would go into the recipients calendar in outlook. I would like for this to happen when someone checked a specific yes/no box and pick up the date needed field on my form as the calendar date in outlook. Right now when the yes/no box is selected it automatically generates a email. Any suggestions out there?
I have a problem to solve using ACCESS 2007. I have an 'appointments' table and a calendar. So far as I click on any date on the calendar it is supposed to show me the appointments for that specific date on the form (this info is gotten through the 'appointments' table which has the date for each appointment). Appointments have to be separated by a 20 minute difference (8:00am, 8:20am, 8:40am, and so on....). I have to have about 30 spaces or appointments to be filled up per day. So overall, the customer wants to have 30 spaces (already filled up with the times) so he could fill out the rest of the appointments info in each needed space as he sets up appointments.
Do I have to create 30 records for each day? How would I do this? What happens with the paces (records) that are not filled? Wouldn't that be a record that is not used (wasted record in the table) ? Is there a more efficient way to do this?
I'm putting together a Customer Management dbase, in Access 07, and one of the tables is dedicated to scheduling (and the outcome) of customer appointments.
The tables I'm hoping to get a solution for are:
1: Customer Master Data (parent): contains fields such as Name, Address, Phone #, email etc
2: Appointment Master (child): there are 4 Appointment tables/queries, one for each of the available product groups, and contain such fields as Product Type, Lead Source, Lead Status, Appointment Date, Appointment Time, Sales Rep, Appointment Comments
What I am trying to do is find a solution as described below:
1: When the appointment is created the appointment is then pushed into Outlook 07; along with various customer information from the Customer Master table
2: OR is there an appointment/scheduling calendar, preferably with the same look/feel of outlook, available that forms part of the access 07 dbase? This is probably the preferred solution.
I have developed an Access database which keeps track of items we have received. What I want to do is enter a date in a field and then by clicking a button that date and the name of the item gets enetered into my Outlook calendar so that it will pop up a reminder on that date. I have no idea if/how this can be done. Any ideas or examples very much appreciated.
I'm totaly new to access and outlook applications etc.. What I'm trying to do is link an access table to my calendar in outlook. I can do it but there is one problem it is not importing all the fields. But when I do an export from outlook to access database file all the fields are there.
Can someone help me with this issue?
P.S. I'm using outlook 2003 and connecting to exchange 2002.
i'm trying to send an Outlook e-mail from Access. Everything works fine except for one thing:
When generating the HTMLBody I use vbNewLine for starting a new line in the string that works fine as long as being in Access. However after displaying it in Outlook there are no any new lines in the mail text; the complete text is one mass.
Runtime Error 3075? I have attached a copy of my database. I am trying to make a calendar form with the list boxes having two columns. It works fine with the strFieldID and strFieldName but when I try adding the strDone I run into the error.
I have built a Travel database and what I'm trying to accomplish is sending the form. For instance, If I fill out the form with the travel information, expenses, destination, etc. at the bottom I specify a manager who needs to approve my request. I have two command buttons one to save the record and the other to submit. What I would like to happen is that when the person filling out the form clicks the submit button an email generates to the manager they've selected with a link of that specific form in the message body.Then when the manager receives the link they go in open the form approve it and then when the manager clicks the submit button I would like it to send the form to our financial personnel.
I wish to work in Access 2010 with a subset of my Outlook 2010 contacts (all desktop- no network barriers), so I am exploring the Desktop Contacts DB found in Microsoft's templates. It passes contact data back and forth using the standard macros, but I wish to add more fields from Outlook. It seems I need to find the code associated with the macro. I believe I can solve the problem using a Linked table, but am wondering if there is another solution?
Calendar synchronization is another issue. Linking gets me to the Archive Calendars, but not the Current one in Outlook which is what I want.
I have this sports center database. Basically what I have is a appointments or "bookings" form which I want to be able to modify to be able to add / delete groups that want to book time in the sports center, whenever I try to do this though however the bookings fail to show up on frmcalendar_daily.
Anyone got any ideas or suggestions (i deleted the groups table / form, decided to start from scratch!)
I'm pretty new to Access. I was wondering if it's possible to make a calculation for a specific row in an Access form.
I placed an example in the attachment (I made it quick in paint, because the actual Access form is in my language "Dutch" ):
Value1 and Value2 come from a database, so the amount of rows can change. When I click on "Calculate" on the first row, it should calculate 12 * 13 and show the solution only on row 1. If I click on "Calculate" on the second row, it should show the solution of 10 * 20 only on row 2.
I tried to solve this by using the following VBA code:
Private Sub Calculate_Click() Solution.Value = Value1.Value * Value2.Value End Sub
But if I click on the first "Calculate" button, it will fill all solutions with the first calculation (12 * 13).. The same happens when I click on "Calculate" on the second, third row etc.
A client I am working for wants a calendar to interact with their database forms, I am thinking outlook would be the best bet, as a table and form to make my own in access would be overly complicated. Is there any way to embed a calendar from outlook within an access form?
I have a folder under the default on in outlook named ANOTHER FOLDER. All I am trying to do is add the blasted entry to this folder. At the moment though it is adding the information to the default calendar and not ANOTHER FOLDER. I'm just testing at the moment but I have tried all manner of combination but no dice.
Code:
'Error 429 occurs with GetObject if Outlook is not running. On Error Resume Next Set objOutlook = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application") If Err.Number = 429 Then 'Outlook is NOT running.
I created a call logging/work tracking type Database using SharePoint 2007 lists for the backend and Access 2013 front end for about 60 users and it has been running smoothly for around two years .
We use a shared outlook calendar and I want to be able to pull meetings & appointment information into the database from the calendar so I can assign the meetings out to specific people and keep of a record that they where given the request to attend. I was able to use the import outlook folder to create a linked table and it has lots of great information from the calendar apart from the two most important things you need in a calendar Start_time & End_Time . Is there something I'm missing in regards to these two fields? I assume I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure out what, nor did I have much luck with the Search function on here or google.
This is the list of field names it does import(everything apart from the meeting time and is it a recurring appointment) Importance Icon Priority Subject From Message To Me Message CC to Me Sender Name CC To Received Message Size Contents Created Modified Subject Prefix Has Attachments Normalized Subject Object Type Content Unread
I have an Outlook Function that i am trying to run from Access.What i am looking for is to Open Outlook through Access and run the Outlook function from Access.
