    Changing Appointment Duration to All Day Event

    I have just migrated from Groupwise to Outlook and have noticed that as a result, many of the former All Day Events in my calendar have changed to 1438 minutes in duration! As there is something like 3,500 of these changing them manually is not possible, is there a way to do this through VBA?

    Thanks

    I'll try this out when I get home. I unfortunately don't have Outlook here. Maybe it can be my weekend project to come up with a fix for you.
    Someday I'll understand everything...
    Even then...I'll still pretend I'm a beginner.

    I'm not very good with Outlook, but it's something that has been intriguing me for a while after transfering from Novell Groupwise to MS Exchange. Sorry I'm not quicker or better at it. Still looking at this though.

    Solution

    In case anyone is interested, I managed to solve this using Sperry Software's Global Search and Replace a little convoluted - changing end times based on certain parameters, but worked in the end.

    NB: I also tried MapiLab's Find and Replace but it didn't work.
