This field is automatically set when changes to the appointment are committed. For example, you might open a recurring appointment that has the instancetype cdoMaster. If you delete all the recurrence patterns and exceptions that are associated with this appointment, and then save your changes, the instancetype of the appointment changes to cdoSingle.

If the value of the instancetype field is cdoInstance or cdoException, the value does not change.
