Outlook find Method
 

Hi,

I use the Items.Find method to search for a certain item,
sometimes it happens that the mehtod returns something, but when
I try to call a method on the returned item, or try to read a
property I get an automatisation error, although the item is really
in the system. It's also not possible to catch the error, because the
returned items is not Nothing so this comparison with IS NOTHING
returns false, when I try IS NULL or = "", I get the automatisation
error?
What could be the cause, or how can I catch the error?

regards
Meex

How do you dim myAppointment? What would TypeName(myAppointment) return?

Dim myAppointment As AppointmentItem

I'm sorry, but at the moment I have no reproducable case, so I'm not
able to run your mentioned statement
