I have looked into previous answers and tried many variations on the below, but I cannot seem to get it to work.
Basically, the purpose of the script below is to turn Outlook reminders into e-mail messages.
However, I cannot seem to programmatically dismiss the reminders. I've looked into prior answers to these questions (such as this one) and attempted to implement them, but they don't seem to succeed in this configuration.
' declare this object withEvents displaying all the events
Private WithEvents olRemind As Outlook.Reminders
Private Sub Application_Reminder(ByVal Item As Object)
Dim objMsg As MailItem
Dim objRem As Reminder
Dim olRemind As Reminders
Set olRemind = Outlook.Reminders
Set objMsg = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
objMsg.To = "*ADDRESS REMOVED FROM EXAMPLE*"
objMsg.subject = "MHReminder: " + Item.subject
objMsg.Body = Item.Body
Set objMsg.SaveSentMessageFolder = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDeletedItems)
objMsg.Send
Set objMsg = Nothing
End Sub
Private Sub olRemind_BeforeReminderShow(Cancel As Boolean)
For Each objRem In olRemind
If objRem.IsVisible = True Then
objRem.Dismiss
Cancel = True
End If
Exit For
Next objRem
End Sub
I'm a bit more of a "kludge-and-splice" programmer than a true programmer, so would appreciate anyone pointing out my (hopefully obvious) errors.
Thank you ...
You are looking at the first found reminder then quitting with
Exit For
As in the example you found Dismiss Outlook reminder you will need something like
For Each objRem In objRems
If objRem.Caption = "TESTING" Then ' <--
If objRem.IsVisible Then
objRem.Dismiss
End If
Exit For
End If
Next objRem
