I'm using Outlook 2003. I have an Excel spreadsheet with a schedule that
keeps changing. I have coded a module in VBA that will create appointment
items in Outlook based on the row information in the Excel sheet. However,
before adding these appointments, I want the module to delete all the
existing appointments in Outlook with the category I'm using. I'm
(understandably) uneasy about playing around with this. Is there an easy way
to delete all appointments associated with a particular category or do you
have to loop through them all?

In code you'd have to filter on those items with the category you want and
delete them one at a time. In the UI you can use a by category view, select
everything in that category and delete it in one action.
