SUMMARY

Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) only publishes three months of Free/Busy data. Until recently, this limit could not be configured.

MORE INFORMATION

Exchange Server version 5.5 Service Pack 2 introduces a new user option of "FreeBusyMonths" that is added to the CDO Session object. This user object contains the number of months of Free/Busy data to publish, which must be greater than or equal to 2. The default value is three months. This new user object can be accessed by the GetOption() and SetOption methods of the Session object.
For example, the following line of code demonstrates how to set the FreeBusyMonths option to 12 months. The code snippet assumes that objSession is a valid CDO Session object:

objSession.SetOption "FreeBusyMonths", 12
                

You can find the current value of FreeBusyMonths as follows:

CurrentValue = objSession.GetOption("FreeBusyMonths")
