Need help with my code C# to help to send meeting request through an Infopath form

I am trying to add a feature to a form where a meeting request is generated from form data. I can get the code to add an entry to my calender or anyone I share a calendar with but can not seem to get the add reciepents feature to work.

The code below was originally posted by BuildPro Guru and I modified it to try to acomplish a meeting request.

The code for the meeting request was from the MSDN site but I just can not get it to work.

Any help would be appreciated.

public void CTRL1_5_Clicked(object sender, ClickedEventArgs e)

{

//First thing you need to do is add a reference to Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library. Then, create new instance of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application object:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application();

// Get the namespace

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.NameSpace ns = outlookApp.GetNamespace("MAPI");

// Create a receipient object that is going to be the organizer of the appointment

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Recipient myOrganizer = ns.CreateRecipient("jessed");

myOrganizer.Resolve();

// Open the shared calendar for the receipient

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MAPIFolder sharedCalendar = ns.GetSharedDefaultFolder(myOrganizer, Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderCalendar);Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem myAppointment = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem)sharedCalendar.Items.Add(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlItemType.olAppointmentItem);

//Next, create an instance of AppointmentItem object and set the properties:

//Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem oAppointment = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlItemType.olAppointmentItem);

myAppointment.Subject = "This is the subject for my appointment";

myAppointment.Body = "This is the body text for my appointment";

myAppointment.Location = "Appointment location";

// Set the start date

myAppointment.Start = Convert.ToDateTime("02/25/2010 10:00:00 AM");

// End date

myAppointment.End = Convert.ToDateTime("02/25/2010 2:00:00 PM");

//Add attendees

// Set the reminder 15 minutes before start

myAppointment.ReminderSet = true;

myAppointment.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = 15;

//Setting the sound file for a reminder:

myAppointment.ReminderPlaySound = true;

//Setting the importance:

//use OlImportance enum to set the importance to low, medium or high

myAppointment.Importance = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlImportance.olImportanceHigh;/* OlBusyStatus is enum with following values:

olBusy

olFree

olOutOfOffice

olTentative

myAppointment.BusyStatus = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlBusyStatus.olBusy;

//Add invited attendees

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AppointmentItem myAttendee = myAppointment.items.Add("bryanw");myAttendee.Type = (int)Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlMeetingRecipientType.olOptional;

myAppointment.Recipients.ResolveAll();

// Save the appointment

myAppointment.Save();

}
