Cannot get Images from AppointmentItem

Question

I have a powershell script that pulls calendar items, saves their body to an RTF file, then concatenates them all into a Word doc. However, it seems that no images embedded in the appointment body are included in the BodyRTF parameter. Is there a way I can get the entire appopintment/meeting body with the images?

Hello there,

Basically, it's a 2-step process:

Get reference to the WordEditor object
Using the clipboard, copy and paste the formatted content into the editor

Thank you! I ended up doing the following"

$objWord = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application  
$objWord.Visible=1  
$objDoc = $objWord.Documents.Add()  
$objSelection = $objWord.Selection  
  
...  
  
$inspector = $appt.GetInspector  
if ($null -eq $inspector) {  
  Write-Output  "No inspector object found for " $appt.Subject  
  continue  
}  
$selection = $inspector.WordEditor.Windows.Item(1).Selection  
$selection.WholeStory()  
$selection.Copy()  
  
...  
  
$objSelection.Paste()
