Hello,

for some repeating appointments i got an entry for each day and for some
there is only the master entry.
I use php and exchange server 2007.

Is there a way to get entries for each day of an appointment? Could that be
configured in the exchange management console?

thanks
Peter

You need to query the calendar with a date range to force calendar expansion
this is explained a little more in
http://blogs.msdn.com/stephen_griffin/archive/2007/02/21/poof-your-calender-really.aspx.
WebDAV has a bunch of limitations around recurring appointments and a number
of other things so on Exchange 2007 I would recommend you look at using
Exchange Web Service instead (you cant use this on 2003). There is a basic
how to with php and EWS on

I think you need to specify urn:schemas:calendar:instancetype <> 1 to get
the kind of listing you're looking for. If you're tempted to try EWS, the
CalendarView is nice.

Lee.

Hi,

my query looks like this

   <a:sql>
       SELECT *
       FROM "$exchange_server/$exchange_username/calendar"
       WHERE "DAV:contentclass" = 'urn:content-classes:appointment'
   </a:sql>

I also tried without the where-clause, but this had no affect.
I didn't mentioned it bevor, but for some older entries, I don't know why,
there are child elements for a repeating appointment
(urn:schemas:calendar:instancetype = 2).
I use a trial version for virtual pc. I changed the date in my host system
and now the virtual machine boots every ~90 mins. Maybe therefore these
child elements had been created.
