When using omcontain is there a way to delete more than one item at a time.

For example if I go into the calendar folder and I want to delete entries 1-100 - is there a command to do that instead of deleting one by one?

Thanks!

write script..

I guess scripting is the way to do it - I am not a programmer so hard for me to script exactly what I want to do.

Not sure why you need to delete 100 items. omcontain is designed for exceptional situations and maximum caution should be used (which cant be the case when you are talking about 100 items)

If you want more or less raw access to calendar items, use IMAP Calendar folder or "View->Arrange by->Current view->Events" in Outlook when browsing calendar.

Foton-

I use omcontain to find corrupt calendar items for users and delete the corrupt ones so they do not get the annoying pop up error message.

I have a test box where I can import their mailbox and use omcontain to find the corrupt meeting. Sometimes they have over 500 items listed in calendar so I delete 20 at a time then open up their profile and see if the error comes up, if it does do 20 more and finally narrow it down to the 1 that is corrupt and then go to the production box and delete it.

What is the step to use omcontain to find the corrupt items?

I would like to know that too
