It seems to me that your question is really about how to "escape"
strings in the Outlook "Find" API. I'm afraid I don't know that - but
I'd look in the Outlook API documentation and ask in an Outlook
programming group if you can't find it in the docs.

When you know the string you need to build but can't work out how to
build it in C#, then post another question here.
