Solved Outlook Appointment Subform records (1 Viewer)

[Juett]

Hi All,

I have a main form with a subform and I want to insert all records from the subform into an Outlook appointment/calendar entry. Everything works accept how the subfrom records are copied. I use the following code to grab the subform records:

Private Sub Outlook_Click()
 Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
 Set rs = Forms!Main!FrmSub.Form.RecordsetClone
 Dim strBody As String, i As Integer
strBody = strBody
rs.MoveFirst
Do Until rs.EOF
strBody = strBody
  For i = 0 To rs.Fields.Count - 1
   strBody = strBody & rs.Fields(i)
  Next
  strBody = strBody & vbCr
rs.MoveNext
Loop
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
strBody = strBody

The above code works, but it copies every single field from the underlying table for each record with out spaces, for example:

587 169 11234 Ford Focus Used
586 169 5678 Mercedes SLK New

I'd like to specify which fields to include, so the results look like this (columns/fields 1,2 and 6 removed/ignored):

1234 Ford Focus
5678 Mercedes SLK

I'm sure I've missed something simple relating to specifying the columns, but can't seem to figure out what it is.

For i = 0 To rs.Fields.Count - 1
   if not (i = 0 or i = 1 or i = 5) then
      strBody = strBody & rs.Fields(i)
   end if
Next

Assume you mean 1,2,6 columns.

StrBody = strBody ?
