Visual Basic - Send an appointment to outlook

Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
set recip=myItem.Recipients.Add "MYemail@company.com"
recip.Type = olRequired
myItem.Subject="Come To My Meeting"
myItem.Start = #4/2/2004 1:30:00 PM#
myItem.Duration = 90
Set myResourceAttendee =myItem.Recipients.Add("Conference Room B")
myResourceAttendee.Type = olResource
myItem.Send

Hi,

Could you tell me what your variables are here, and where applicable your components or references?

thanks

olAppointmentItem=1
olRequired=1
olResource=3

Don't include Any references if you want this to be portable to other versions of Outlook, if this is just for on machine and the outlook version wont change, add the Microsoft Outlook Object Model

Sorry, I think I am misunderstanding something!  What variables do I need to declare and what should I declare them as, the code seems to be running fine but no appointment is appearing!

ahhh yes if you want to send to someone else there is one more step, use this code ...

'****************
Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myNameSpace = myOlApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set myOutBox = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderOutbox)
Set myitem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
myitem.MeetingStatus = olMeeting
Set recip = myitem.Recipients.Add("<emailAddressHere>")
recip.Type = olRequired
recip.Resolve
myitem.Subject = "Come To My Meeting"
myitem.Start = #4/2/2004 1:30:00 PM#
myitem.Duration = 90
myitem.Send
Set myitem = Nothing
'**********************

I can't even get it to appear my self!  I think I must be declaring the variables wrong, can you give me the correct declaration statement?

the reason why nothing was happening was because he had not included  the outlook object model so he didn't support named constants, my last post has the correct values.

The only time in vb declaring type variants is required is when option explicit is used, if that had been turned on the script would not have run at all.
