This example demonstrates how to copy the selected appointments to the following month. A copy of an existing appointment is created via the Appointment.Copy method. After a new appointment has been created, its start time is increased by one month via the Appointment.Start property.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraScheduler;
// ...

// Loop through all the selected appointments.
for(int i = 0; i < schedulerControl1.SelectedAppointments.Count; i++) {
   Appointment apt = schedulerControl1.SelectedAppointments[i];

   // Copy the current appointment.
   Appointment newApt = apt.Copy();

   // Add one month to the new appointment's start time.
   newApt.Start = apt.Start.AddMonths(1);

   // Add the new appointment to the appointment collection.
   schedulerControl1.Storage.AppointmentStorage.Add(newApt); 
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraScheduler
' ...

Dim i As Integer
' Loop through all the selected appointments.
For i = 0 To schedulerControl1.SelectedAppointments.Count-1
   Dim apt As Appointment = schedulerControl1.SelectedAppointments(i)

   ' Copy the current appointment.
   Dim newApt As Appointment = apt.Copy()

   ' Add one month to the new appointment's start time.
   newApt.Start = apt.Start.AddMonths(1)

   ' Add the new appointment to the appointment collection.
   schedulerControl1.Storage.AppointmentStorage.Add(newApt)
