Snoozed occurrence doesn't generate exception

[Richard Gran]

Hi guys,

Is this a normal behaviour of Outlook. I tried searching in Google but
couldn't find topics about this.

I'm having a problem trying to find if an occurrence has been snoozed or
not as the object model gives me the Master appointment and its
exceptions list is empty.

By the way, I can check the FlagDueBy property though if it is snoozed
or not but can't tell if it is for an occurrence.

Thanks,
Richard

Once you use GetOccurrence() on the RecurrencePattern object you are working
with that single occurrence. After an item reminder is created FlagDueBy is
the result of ReminderTime - ReminderMintuesBeforeStart. Any change to that
is either an exception or a snooze.

Whenever you snooze an appointment, the master occurrence is modified.
If you dismiss aan alarm, it is reset to the next occurrence on the master
appointment.

Hi Dmitry,

This is what I'm getting. Thanks for the hint that the master occurrence
gets reset to the next occurrence (flagdueby property of the master
became the same as the flagdueby of the next occurence), if the previous
occurrence was dismissed.

I was trying to anticipate a scenario, though very unlikely to happen,
that the user accidentally snoozed an occurrence that is close or,
worse, on or after the next occurrence due time.

Hi Ken,

I was hoping the OOM will generate an exception when an occurrence is
snoozed because it will be easier to track down the changes. But the
case was otherwise.

Thanks,
Richard
