The information in this article applies to:
You can use a message filter in an Active Server Page (ASP) utilizing Microsoft Visual Basic Script (VBScript) to filter your appointment calendar. This article contains sample code that demonstrates how to use VBScript for the message filter.
NOTE: This article contains a seemingly contradictory line of code.
In the example below, the variable "StartTime" is used to filter for meetings that start at or after a particular time. "EndTime" is used to filter for meetings that end before or at a particular time. The confusion arises from where these variables are used.
You pass "EndTime" with "CdoPR_START_DATE" and you pass "StartTime" with "CdoPR_END_DATE".
This is not a typographical error, the apparently contradictory code is correct.
