Subject of exception of recurring whole-day appointment displayed wrong

[david.binkovic]

Hi,

I'm creating an exception of an recurring whole-day appointment by
changing the subject of one occurance, but the changed subject is not
shown when opening the appointment, while it is shown correcty in the
calendar views. The exception is set accordingly to
http://www.geocities.com/cainrandom/dev/MAPIRecurrence.html , and it
works correctly for non-whole-day appointments, too.

I also checked exception of the appointment using outlookspy, and I
can't find any obvious error (i.e. the changed subject is set correcty
in 0x80e7 (RecurrenceState), both in Unicode and non-Unicaode
format).

Where else could the subject for the exception of the series come
from?

Thanks,
David

You can look in the official docs.

[MS-OXOCAL]: Appointment and Meeting Object Protocol Specification
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc425490.aspx

Outlook may not find Attachment for this exception.

Did you set the modified subject in the recurrence blob?

David, I wish I remembered more about recurrence schedules, but I'm
about to get back into them and update that document in light of the
new Microsoft documentation.

The easiest way to find out what's going on is to compare an exception
to a series created by Outlook that has a different subject to the
exception you're generating (using OutlookSpy's diff view). That
should give you some leads.
