  private void DeleteMarketingCampaign()
{ 

Outlook.ApplicationClass _app = new Outlook.ApplicationClass();
Outlook.Application olApp = (Outlook.Application)_app;
Outlook.NameSpace olNameSpace = _app.GetNamespace("MAPI");
Outlook.Folders folders = olNameSpace.Session.Folders;
Outlook.Folder bcmRootFolder = (Outlook.Folder)folders["Business Contact Manager"];
Outlook.Folder campaignsFolder = (Outlook.Folder)bcmRootFolder.Folders["Marketing Campaigns"];


string strQuery = "[Subject] = 'New Marketing Campaign'";


Outlook.TaskItem campaignItem = (Outlook.TaskItem)campaignsFolder.Items.Find(strQuery);
if (campaignItem != null)
{
campaignItem.Delete();
}


else
{
Console.WriteLine("Campaign Not Found");
}


}



  Sub DeleteMarketingCampaign() 

Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim olFolders As Outlook.Folders
Dim bcmRootFolder As Outlook.Folder
Dim bcmCampaignsFldr As Outlook.Folder
Dim existMarketingCampaign As Outlook.TaskItem


Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olFolders = objNS.Session.Folders


Set bcmRootFolder = olFolders("Business Contact Manager")
Set bcmCampaignsFldr = bcmRootFolder.Folders("Marketing Campaigns")


Set existMarketingCampaign = bcmCampaignsFldr.Items.Find("[Subject] = 'Sales Project with Wide World Importers'")
If Not TypeName(existMarketingCampaign) = "Nothing" Then


  existMarketingCampaign.Delete
