Set oApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
 
Dim oNs As Outlook.NameSpace
Set oNs = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
oNs.Logon
Dim oAppt As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Set oAppt = oApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
 oAppt.Start = "12/2/2011 2:20:00 PM"
With oAppt
      .Duration = 60
      .Subject = "meeting with Client"
      .Body = "About Project..."
      .Location = "Our New York Office"
      .ReminderSet = True
End With
oAppt.Save
Set oNs = Nothing
Set oAppt = Nothing
Set oApp = Nothing
