ClearRecurrencePattern

Removes the recurrence settings and restores the single-occurrence state for an appointment or task.
 

GetRecurrencePattern

set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession")
Session.Logon

set Task = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderTasks).Items.Add
Task.Subject = "Test Redemption Task"
Task.Body = "Test Task Body"
Task.StartDate = #5/1/2006#
Set myRecurrPatt = Task.GetRecurrencePattern
myRecurrPatt.RecurrenceType = olRecursDaily
myRecurrPatt.Interval = 3
myRecurrPatt.PatternStartDate = #5/1/2006#
myRecurrPatt.PatternEndDate = #5/1/2007#
Task.Save

MarkComplete
