Thanks AM. I really need to learn more about Win32::OLE. This page provided me with what I was looking for:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q208520

What I needed to use was the folders object. Here's the description:

Folders Object

You can use the Folders object to refer to any folder that is visible in the Outlook folder list. This object is typically used to refer to an Exchange public folder or any other folder that is not a default Outlook folder.

Note that you typically start at the top-most folder and work your way down to the folder you need to reference. Also note that the folder names are case-sensitive and must exactly match the names as they appear in the Outlook folder list.

And here's what my code looks like: 

my $namespace = $outlook->GetNameSpace("MAPI") or die "can't open MAPI
+ namespace\n";

my $myFolder1 = $namespace->Folders("Public Folders");
my $myFolder2 = $myFolder1->Folders("All Public Folders");
my $myFolder3 = $myFolder2->Folders("MITSL");
my $myFolder4 = $myFolder3->Folders("Conference Facility Schedules");
my $myFolder5 = $myFolder4->Folders("R523 - Conf Room M");

my $recurringitems = $myFolder5->{Items};
my $calitems =       $myFolder5->{Items};
