Event extraction using VBA - How to pick a desired event that is scheduled to start at a known time with a known subject

[gotovamsee]

I modified this online code which works for me today by extracting attendees from a given category and saving it on sharepoint excel. However it does not entirely fulfill my requirements.

Please help me in getting this to also work as below...



Requirement: Trigger not by event notifications but on a specified date and time. Provided it finds my desired event from a known string 'Weekly meeting' in the subject. And this event is not recurring but scheduled every week as new. The idea is to extract attendees a day before the meeting starts.

Nice to have: Count of Accepted, Declined, Not Responded including the 'Required Attendees' as accepted.

Dim objMeeting As Outlook.AppointmentItem

Dim objAttendees As Outlook.Recipients

Dim objAttendee As Outlook.Recipient

Dim strExcelFile As String

Dim nLastRow As Integer

objExcelWorksheet.Cells(1, 3) = "Response"


'If InStr(Item.Subject, "Weekly Meeting") Then

If objAttendees.Count > 0 Then

For Each objAttendee In objAttendees

nLastRow = objExcelWorksheet.Range("A" & objExcelWorksheet.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1

'Input the attendee names

objExcelWorksheet.Range("A" & nLastRow) = objAttendee.Name
