Default Creating Outlook Appointment

Thanks,
I did have the .Save statement, just didn't in the portion I cut and pasted
here. I ended up changing my data some and it works now. My Date and Time
were in separate fields, now they in one cell it works.

Now I am trying to add the user name to the body text with:

Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim Appt As Outlook.AppointmentItem

Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set Appt = olApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)

With Appt
.Start = Range("K7").Value
.End = Range("K7").Value
.Subject = Range("H7").Value & "/ " & Range("A7").Value & " / " &
Range("D7").Value
.Body = "Contact: " & Range("e7").Value & vbNewLine & "Contact
Phone: " & Range("F7").Value & vbNewLine & "Notified: " & Range("G7").Value
& vbNewLine & "PO Verified & Entered by: " & Environ(Username)
.ReminderSet = False
.Save
End With

Set Appt = Nothing
Set olApp = Nothing


But I am getting an Invalid Procedure call (error 5)

Any ideas?

Hi,

With start/end date of 24/09/2006 15:00 in L7 I found that this is fine
(with reference selected to MS Outlook Object library in Tools, References)

Try App.Display or App.Save after your End With statement ?

Hi again -
I am trying to write a macro that when a button is clicked on a spreadsheet,
it will use the data entered on the new row to create an appointment in
Outlook...

The area that I am experiencing difficulty in is the appointment time,
duration and body text.

Here is my code:
Sub SetAppt()

Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim Appt As Outlook.AppointmentItem

Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set Appt = olApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)

With Appt
.Start = Range("L7").Value
.End = Range("L7").Value
.Subject = Range("I7").Value & Range("a7").Value & Range("d7").Value
.Body = Range("e7").Value
.ReminderSet = False
End With
Set Appt = Nothing
Set olApp = Nothing

End Sub

Any help is appreciated.
