Gets/sets how the CancelableAppointmentEventArgs.Appointment is opened for editing.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property RecurrenceEditType As RecurrenceEditType
public RecurrenceEditType RecurrenceEditType {get; set;}
Remarks

Note: This property is only applicable when the CancelableAppointmentEventArgs.Appointment is a member of a recurrence, or is itself a recurring appointment root.

Example
This example demonstrates how to use the parameters of the 'BeforeDisplayAppointmentDialog' event to cancel the display of the appointment dialog or control what recurrence information the user will edit (if the appointment is associated with a recurrence).
