GetFreeBusy Method

Microsoft Outlook Visual Basic

The GetFreeBusy method returns a String representing the availability of the individual user for a period of 30 days from the start date, beginning at midnight of the date specified.

Note  If an address entry represents a distribution list, the status of its individual members cannot be returned to you with the GetFreeBusy method. A meeting request should be sent only to single messaging users. You can determine if a messaging user is a distribution list by determining if its DisplayType property is olDistList or olPrivateDistList.
