Outlk 2k3 Script: Find and findNext use
 

The Date function either sets or retrieves the system date. It doesn't do
anything close to what you want to do. You also can't use seconds in a Find
or Restrict.

The Help on Items.Restrict lists all the properties you can't use for a
filter and shows some pretty good examples of filters you can use. For what
you want it probably would be something like:

sFilter = "[Mileage] " & Var1
sFilter = sFilter & " And [CreationTime] = '" & Format(Var2, "ddddd h:nn
AMPM") & "'"
Set myItem = Items.Find(sFilter)
