SYMPTOMS
A Microsoft Visual Basic application attempting to use the SPlusReadAppt function will not retrieve the creator of an appointment.



CAUSE
For developing applications in Visual Basic, the Schedule Access Libraries (SAL) includes the SPlusReadAppt function, which is declared in the module file SPLUS.BAS to make calls to the library SPLUS.DLL. SPlusReadAppt makes calls to functions BPLUSReadAppt and BPLUSGetReadAppt.

The call to BPLUSGetReadAppt function should return a type (structure) of SPlusAppt that includes a reference to the creator type. However, the creator type is not correctly returned. The creator information can be accessed by an application built with the C interface to SPLUS.DLL.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 1.0a of Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
Not every appointment will have a creator associated with it. The creator information is included when the appointment is created by a user who is not the owner of the calendar file. This can only happen when another user has been given create or assistant rights by the owner of the calendar. When these users create appointments on calendars other than their own, they are recorded as the creator.
