Lotus Notes Calendaring V6 vs V5

[sts043]

Hi..

I'm not a Notes developer, just a user.

I recently created an Excel VBA program which succesfully loads dated reminders in the Lotus Notes calendar from rows in an Excel spreadsheet.
My version of Notes is V6 and this funtcion works fine.

We still have 40 or so users in our organisation who are using Lotus Notes V5 and unfortunately these users are unable to 'see' the reminders.

Below is a snippet of the code to show which fields I am loading:

***************************************************

Set MySession = CreateObject("notes.NotesSession") ' Create a Lotus Notes session object
Set Richstyle = MySession.CREATERICHTEXTSTYLE ' Create a rich text style object
Set NotesDB = MySession.GETDATABASE(ServerName, MailDbName) ' Create a Notes Calendar database object
If Not NotesDB.ISOPEN Then Exit Function ' The required calendar must be open
Set CalenDoc = NotesDB.CREATEDOCUMENT ' Create 'Reminder' Calendar object
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("Form", "Appointment") ' Tell it to use the Appointment form
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("AppointmentType", "4") ' Set the type as 'Reminder'
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("StartDate", CStr(FormatDateTime(AppDate, vbShortDate))) ' Notes Date conversion
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("StartDate_2", CStr(FormatDateTime(AppDate, vbShortDate))) ' Notes Date conversion
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("StartTime", strSTime) ' Notes Time conversion
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("StartTime_2", CStr(FormatDateTime(Timex, vbShortDate))) ' Notes Time conversion
CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE "ENDDATETIME", CDate(AppDate & " " & strSTime) ' Notes Date conversion
CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE "STARTDATETIME", CDate(AppDate & " " & strSTime) ' Notes Date conversion
CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE "CALENDARDATETIME", CDate(AppDate & " " & strSTime) ' Notes Date conversion
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("Categories", Category) ' Set the 'Summary' category
Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("_viewIcon", Icon)

Richstyle.fontSize = 12 ' Set rich text style font size
Richstyle.Bold = True ' Set rich text style weight
Set RTBody = CalenDoc.CREATERICHTEXTITEM("body") ' Create rich text Body object
Call RTBody.APPENDSTYLE(Richstyle) ' Apply rich text style to the body object
Call RTBody.APPENDTEXT(Body) ' Append the body object to the body field

Call CalenDoc.REPLACEITEMVALUE("Subject", Subject) ' Set the subject field

Call CalenDoc.COMPUTEWITHFORM(True, False) ' Validate the form

Call CalenDoc.Save(True, False) ' Save the Reminder
SendNewNotesAppointment = True
Exit Function
SendNotesErr:
SendNewNotesAppointment = False
Set CalenDoc = Nothing ' Unload the Calendar object.

***************************************************

To show the reminder on V5 am I missing anything?

Thanks in advance.
