    Question Automatic Outlook Appointment from Excel Help

    I am new to this am needing help with it.
    I have a spreadsheet that I am using columns A-I. Row 1 is my headers. Row 2 starts my data entry.
    I am wanting Excel to automatically make an All Day Appointment in Outlook that reminds me for each row using column A as my Subject, column B as my Location, and column E as the Date.

    Please can someone help me with this? Please remember I am very new to this.

    Hi -

    Do a conditional formatting in column E to check if the dates in there is today's date then color the cells.
    Not sure if this is what you want.

    Re: Automatic Outlook Appointment from Excel Help

    Thank you. This seems to have work. I have a few follow up questions.
    1. How to tell it to stop on lets say row 350? I have a few charts and graphs that is coming back with errors.
    2. It is not taking my custom format from column C. My format is, ("BUMCO-"000000), all I am getting is the numbers.
    3. Will this update as I update my spreadsheet, or will I have to click run macro everytime I update my sheet?
    4. I ran it once and it worked. I filled in two rows, reran it and it duplicated at the prior ones and added these. So now I need to know how to make sure it doesn't duplicate prior rows.

    Hi -

    1. change from

    2. Column C is not taking into account in my script as well as the thread requirement.The only mentioned columns are A,B and E
    3 & 4. You need to run the macro everytime you made an update on the excel and you want to update the outlook as well. you need to add script to check if the appointment is already exists.(Google it, you now have the base script.)
