Content query webpart - calendar issue with reccuring events

I have a content query webpart that read the calendar list and display currently running events.

The issue I have is when I set up a recurring event, my query gets "broken".

My CAML request :

<Where>
    <And>
        <Leq>
            <FieldRef Name="EventDate" Nullable="False" Type="DateTime"/>
            <Value Type="DateTime" IncludeTimeValue="TRUE">
            <Today />
            </Value>
        </Leq>
        <Geq>
            <FieldRef Name="EndDate" Nullable="False" Type="DateTime"/>
            <Value Type="DateTime" IncludeTimeValue="TRUE">
            <Today />
            </Value>
        </Geq>
    </And>
</Where>

Problem is, recurring events are defined with an EventDate of whenever it starts, but the EndDate is something like in 10 years from now (or in year 4499 O_o ).

Here's the identity output of a recurring event (it seems nothing define it like that... at least, from the info I can toy with).

(This event is defined as happening every Monday and Tuesday).

1. How can I know if an event is recurrent or not?
2. How could I filter my query to contains only currently running occurrence of a开发者_开发问答 periodic event?

The first thing to realise is that a recurring event series is stored as just one event, not as each individual instance.

Hence the start/end dates being so long - its the total length of the recurrance, not any particular instance.

There is an fRecurrance field that is True if you are dealing with a recurring event.

This is about the only guide you will find for understanding recurring events - but heads up, working with recurring events is hard work and that way lies anger, hate and suffering...
