The RecurrenceType property returns or sets the recurrence unit and the frequency with which the appointment recurs. Read/write.

The RecurrenceType property determines the periodicity with which the AppointmentItem is to recur. It can have exactly one of the following values:
| RecurrenceType setting |
Decimal value |
Other properties used in conjunction with this setting |
|---|---|---|
| CdoRecurTypeDaily | 0 | Interval |
| CdoRecurTypeWeekly | 1 | DayOfWeekMask Interval |
| CdoRecurTypeMonthly | 2 | DayOfMonth Interval |
| CdoRecurTypeMonthlyNth | 3 | DayOfWeekMask Instance Interval |
| CdoRecurTypeYearly | 5 | DayOfMonth Interval MonthOfYear |
| CdoRecurTypeYearlyNth | 6 | DayOfWeekMask Instance Interval MonthOfYear |
RecurrenceType is always valid on a newly created RecurrencePattern object and defaults to CdoRecurTypeWeekly.
If you instantiate one or more individual recurrences and subsequently delete them all, Microsoft® Outlook™ deletes the RecurrencePattern object. If CDO determines that your active calendar store is Outlook, it also deletes the RecurrencePattern object in this case.
Changes you make to properties on a RecurrencePattern object take effect when you call the underlying appointment's Send or Update method.
