I'm running a VBA script that generates a report based on
a conference room calendar. A user has deleted an
appointment on the calendar, and it no longer shows up on
the Outlook client, but my script still sees it in the
MeetingRoomCalendarFolder.Items collection. Any ideas?

....is there a "deleted" field I need to look at?

....is there a "cleanup" process that needs to be run on
the Exchange database?
 
Ah, that changes things. An item in a recurring series is available as
part of the series and if you've set IncludeRecurrences then you will
get all instances of that recurring item.

You can see which items in a recurring series are deleted or whatever
by getting the RecurrencePattern and checking the Exceptions
collection of the recurring series.
