Hi,

I have a custom appointment form, and I am wanting to pop up a message if a
resource is invited to the appointment. I have the code to do this:

Function RecipCountNoResource()
        Dim objRecip
        Dim intCount
        Const olResource = 3
        intCount = 0
        Set colRecips = Item.Recipients
        For Each objRecip In Item.Recipients
                If objRecip.Type <> olResource Then
                        intCount = intCount + 1
                End If
        Next
        RecipCountNoResource = intCount
        Set objRecip = Nothing
End Function

HOWERVER: What I want to do is to check if the resource that is invited
belongs to a particular group. I have been told that the only way to do this
is creating a MAPI session in order to get the username. But I haven't been
able to find enough information to do it. Once I have the code to get the
username based on the recipient, then I can check if it is a particular
group, which I can do using the following code:

Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNamespace = objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")

strDomain = "mydomain.com"
strUser = "nmillin"

Set oUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & strDomain & "/" & strUser)

If MemberOf("Solutions", oUser) = true then
     If objRecip
        intCount = intCount + 1
     End If
End If

However at the moment the user name is hard coded. So my question is again,
how do I get a recipients username (ie. jbloggs) using CDO/MAPI.
