Problem with MAPIFolder.Items.Restrict(), C#, Outlook 2003 and ear OctopusThu 1/25/2007 3:21:02 PM I want to aquire all items in the folder that starts later than a specified time. How can I use the Restrict method to achieve this? In MSDN, there is a VB example: sFilter = "[LastModificationTime] > '" & Format("1/15/99 3:30pm", "ddddd h:nn AMPM") & "'" But how about C#? I tried using String.Format with the following code but failed: Outlook.Items appointmentItems; try { string strStartTime = String.Format(startTime.ToString(), "ddddd h:nn AMPM"); appointmentItems = folder.Items.Restrict("[MessageClass] = 'IPM.Appointment'"); appointmentItems = folder.Items.Restrict("[Start] >= '" + strStartTime + "'"); //Exception occurred here } catch(Exception ex) { ...... }

RE: Problem with MAPIFolder.Items.Restrict(), C#, Outlook 2003 and ear OctopusThu 1/26/2007 7:36:02 AM I have figured it out myself.
