Using VB to query Exchange

I have found sample code for using VB to query out appointment information from MS Exchange. I am not able to get the code to compile and could use some insight from anyone that may have tried this before.

Using Visual Studio 8 Professional on a Windows 7 64 bit.

The code is failing on three lines of code:

Dim iAppt As New CDO.Appointment

Dim info As New ADSystemInfo

ItemURL = Rs.Fields(CdoDAV.cdoHref).Value

All fail with type is not defined. Figured it is a reference issue so I tried tackling CDO first. My reference library only shows Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library. I added it but still doesn't work. Did some research and found there is a Microsoft CDO for Exchange 2000 library. Found the install from Microsoft. Uninstalled Outlook from my machine and installed this (had to uninstall because package would not install on machine with outlook). In my references, I now see Microsoft CDO 1.21 library but no Exchange 2000 Library. It is using the correct CDO.dll so I added it to the project. Still no joy.

Wondering what I am missing.

Below I will show the complete code in case anyone needs to see it. Basically, I need to query out all calendar events for a single user in exchange and store in a SQL database. This code seemed straight forward for pulling the records and all I had to do was write new code to store into SQL. If I am going in the wrong direction, I am open for suggestions.

Thx,
Douglas

I believe this is a VB classic app. This should be transferred to VB 6.0 section.

How does one go about transferring it?

Requestion this thread to be transferred to Office Development Section.
