MsgBox "Please Select contacts first!", vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, "Kutools for Outlook"

xFileName = "Calendar (" & Format(xStartDate, "YYYYMMDD") & " - " & Format(xEndDate, "YYYYMMDD") & ").ics"
xCalendarFile = xFilePath & "\" & xFileName
With xCalendarExporter
.IncludeWholeCalendar = False
.StartDate = xStartDate
.EndDate = xEndDate
.CalendarDetail = olFullDetails
.IncludeAttachments = True
.IncludePrivateDetails = False
.RestrictToWorkingHours = False
.SaveAsICal xCalendarFile
End With
For Each xItem In xSelection
If xItem.Class = olContact Then
Set xContactItem = xItem
Set xMailItem = Outlook.Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With xMailItem
.To = xContactItem.Email1Address
.Recipients.ResolveAll
.Subject = xFileName
.Attachments.Add xCalendarFile
.Body = "Dear " & xContactItem.FullName & "," & vbCrLf & "Type body here..."
.Display
End With
End If
If xItem.Class = olDistributionList Then
Set xDistListItem = xItem
For i = 1 To xDistListItem.MemberCount
Set xRecipient = xDistListItem.GetMember(i)
Set xMailItem = Outlook.Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With xMailItem
.To = xRecipient.AddressEntry.Address
.Recipients.ResolveAll
.Subject = xFileName
.Attachments.Add xCalendarFile
