Hi,



A week ago I started a thread how to open a group calendar.



The only possibility seems to be the ugly SendKeys.



But that'll only work if the appropriate (calendar) menu bar is available.



Can I check this availability?



Something like:
Do until Application.MenuBars("CalendarMenuBar") = True
x = x + 1
Loop



Thanks again

Frank


***** Old Thread ***********
I thought doing a little Loop until the menubar is available but I don't
know how to check this.

Something like:
Do until Application.MenuBars("CalendarMenuBar") = True
x = x + 1
Loop

Thanks for any futher help.

" Michael, I think Frank is talking not about a calendar folder but about a
group calendar item. Those aren't accessible programmatically, except to set
properties with CDO or Redemption.

Frank, SendKeys is never a stable solution. In your case, what should that
be good for?

If you want to make that group calendar the current one then you could do
that directly:

Dim Folder as Outlook.MapiFolder
Set Folder = ....
Set Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder = Folder


Hi,

I made a macro (O 2003), wich changes to a public calendar folder and
opens
a group calendar connected to this calendar via SendKeys.

On my machine that's working fine even if I am in an email or contacts
folder.

On my clients machines the macro overhauls itself and the menubar for the
calendar is not yet available when I trigger SendKeys.

************** CODE ****************
Function OpenGroupCalendar(strGTP As String)
Dim ALL_VAR As OBJECT_XY

Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myNameSpace = myOlApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")

Set myFolder = myNameSpace.Folders("Public Folder").Folders("All
Public
Folders").Folders("CompanyXY").Folders("CalendarAc counting")


Set myExplorer = myOlApp.ActiveExplorer
Set myExplorer.CurrentFolder = myFolder

Set cbb = ActiveExplorer.CommandBars.FindControl(, 7002)
SendKeys "%?? If Not cbb Is Nothing Then cbb.Execute

Set ALL_VAR = Nothing
End Function
************ END OF CODE **************

Thank you
Frank

The CommandBars object fires an OnUpdate event, maybe that helps. Whether an
object is available or not could be checked by e.g.:

If Not Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars("name") Is Nothing Then ...
