expression**.Location**

*expression   * Required. An expression that returns an AppointmentItem object.

This Visual Basic for Applications example uses CreateItem to create an appointment and uses MeetingStatus to set the meeting status to "Meeting" to turn it into a meeting request with both a required and an optional attendee.

Sub ScheduleMeeting()
    Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim myItem as AppointmentItem
    Dim myRequiredAttendee As Recipient
    Dim myOptionalAttendee As Recipient
    Dim myResourceAttendee As Recipient
    Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
    myItem.MeetingStatus = olMeeting
    myItem.Subject = "Strategy Meeting"
    myItem.Location = "Conference Room B"
    myItem.Start = #9/24/2002 1:30:00 PM#
    myItem.Duration = 90
    Set myRequiredAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add ("Nate Sun")
    myRequiredAttendee.Type = olRequired
    Set myOptionalAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add ("Kevin Kennedy")
    myOptionalAttendee.Type = olOptional
    Set myResourceAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add("Conference Room B")
    myResourceAttendee.Type = olResource
    myItem.Send
End Sub

If you use VBScript, you do not create the Application object, and you cannot use named constants. This example shows how to perform the same task using VBScript.

Set myItem = Application.CreateItem(1)
myItem.MeetingStatus = 1
myItem.Subject = "Strategy Meeting"
myItem.Location = "Conference Room B"
myItem.Start = #9/24/97 1:30:00 PM#
myItem.Duration = 90
Set myRequiredAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add ("Nate Sun")
myRequiredAttendee.Type = 1
Set myOptionalAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add ("Kevin Kennedy")
myOptionalAttendee.Type = 2
Set myResourceAttendee = myItem.Recipients.Add("Conference Room B")
myResourceAttendee.Type = 3
myItem.Send
