Hi,

I am creating events with Recurrences, for example I have set the recurrence

to daily, this populates then entire calendar as required, I now want to remove all the recurring events. I use the remove recurrence on the event but this does not remove all the recurring events. How do I remove all recurrences, I have checked for recurrencetype = master but all the events still remain.

Can you please post code snippet on how to remove All Recurrences in one delete.

Cheers in Advance

Hi,

The example below is included with the next release.


Private Sub mnuDeleteEvent_Click()

    Dim bDeleted As Boolean

    bDeleted = False

    

    If ContextEvent.RecurrenceState = xtpCalendarRecurrenceOccurrence _

        Or ContextEvent.RecurrenceState = xtpCalendarRecurrenceException _

    Then

        frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.m_bOcurrence = True

        frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.m_bDeleteRequest = True

        frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.m_strEventSubject = ContextEvent.Subject

        

        frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.Show vbModal

        

        If frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.m_bOK = False Then

              Exit Sub

        ElseIf Not frmOccurrenceSeriesChooser.m_bOcurrence Then

              ' Series

              CalendarControl.DataProvider.DeleteEvent  ContextEvent.RecurrencePattern.MasterEvent

              bDeleted = True

        End If

    End If

        

    If Not bDeleted Then

        CalendarControl.DataProvider.DeleteEvent ContextEvent

    End If

    

    CalendarControl.Populate

    CalendarControl.RedrawControl

End Sub

Hi,

Thank you a very helpful example.

also I came across removeRecurrence this sets the recurrencetype to 0 and accorsing to the help notes this is now a non recurring event but when I update the event it still belongs to the recurrence series.

should it not be a standalone event at this point. as when I delete the series, this modified event which has no recurrence attached is also deleted can you help explain why the calendar still thinks it is part of a recurrence

Cheers in Advance

Hi,

The property CalendarRecurrencePattern.MasterEvent returns a new object each time when called.

CalendarEvent.RecurrencePattern also returns new object each time for non-master event. For master event it returns the same internally associated pattern object.

So, the following code will take no effect:

pEvent.RecurrencePattern.MasterEvent.RemoveRecurrence

The example below should work correctly:


Public pMasterEvent As CalendarEvent



Set pMasterEvent = pEvent.RecurrencePattern.MasterEvent

pMasterEvent.RemoveRecurrence



CalendarControl.DataProvider.ChangeEvent pMasterEvent



CalendarControl.Populate

CalendarControl.RedrawControl
