Hi All,
Does this work with the tag too? I need to isolate conflicting appointments being posted in a calendar list (and of course I need to check for fRecurrence) and I’m using the tag and setting the SPQuery’s CalendarDate property to a date and time, but it still returns some rubbish results :/. I’m having to do this programmatically currently, but would be nicer in a CAML query. I have tried to use the IncludeTimeValue in my query, but it still get spurious results back.

Any help would be great!!

Thanks
Andy

Sorry, I posted wrong code earlieir.Anyways, I finally got it to work. I did not know that the xml would be case sensitive. I added scope=Recursive and changed case on the query xml, and boom! It returned correct results. I did use the U2U CAML query builder to get the correct xml.
Thanks,

using (SPSite sourceSite = new SPSite(sourceUrlProcessed))
{
using (SPWeb sourceWeb = sourceSite.OpenWeb())
{
SPFolder sourceFolder = sourceWeb.GetFolder(sourceUrlProcessed);
SPList sourceList = sourceWeb.Lists[sourceFolder.ParentListId];
SPFolderCollection subFolders = sourceFolder.SubFolders;
string stDate = SPUtility.CreateISO8601DateTimeFromSystemDateTime(this.ToMoveStartDate);
string endDate = SPUtility.CreateISO8601DateTimeFromSystemDateTime(this.ToMoveEndDate);
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
query.Query = “” + stDate + “” + endDate + “”;
query.ViewAttributes = “Scope=’Recursive’”;
query.ViewFields = BuildViewFieldsXml(”Title”, “Created”, “ID”, “Name”, “State”, “FVDate”);
SPListItemCollection sourceItems = sourceList.GetItems(query);
}
}

Hi,
I have spent a whole day on this, but not getting the results I want. I appreciate it if you can help. It returns all the files in the folder. Here’s my code,

string sourceUrlProcessed = StringHelper.ProcessStringField(executionContext, SourceUrl);
using (SPSite sourceSite = new SPSite(sourceUrlProcessed))
{
using (SPWeb sourceWeb = sourceSite.OpenWeb())
{

SPFolder sourceFolder = sourceWeb.GetFolder(sourceUrlProcessed);
SPList sourceList = sourceWeb.Lists[sourceFolder.ParentListId];

SPFolderCollection subFolders = sourceFolder.SubFolders;
string stDate = SPUtility.CreateISO8601DateTimeFromSystemDateTime(this.ToMoveStartDate);
string endDate = SPUtility.CreateISO8601DateTimeFromSystemDateTime(this.ToMoveEndDate);

foreach (SPFolder subFolder in subFolders)
{
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
query.Query = “” + stDate + “” + endDate + “”;

query.Folder = subFolder;
SPListItemCollection files = sourceList.GetItems(query);
DebugHelper.Log(”Sourcefolder= ” + query.Folder.Name);
DebugHelper.Log(”Count= ” + files.Count);

foreach (SPListItem file in files)
{
DebugHelper.Log(”Filenme= ” + file.Name);
}
}
}
}

Wow, this article could have been written by me! I also feel frustrated quite often when working on Sharepoint. I didn’t know about this, but I also haven’t yet encountered a situation where I needed it.
