Default Hookup OL2003 "Open a Shared Calendar/Contacts/Tasks" link

I hope you can lead me in the right direction. My company wants to use
outlook for appointments. They want to be able to populate outlook from
another program. Also, when an appointment gets moved in outlook, they want
the data sent to another program. Is that possible? And were can I learn
more (web sites, books, discussion groups...).

Thanks.

Sue,

Thank you for answering my question! It is too bad MS doesn't expose these
links in Outlook Object Model. Since you are the guru of Outlook
programming, I like ask you more tricky questions:
1. Is it possible to remove, hide or disable this link in COM Addin (via
some MAPI tricky)?
2. What is this link in the pane? a html hyperlink or a COM object?
3. If I have to listen to a Windows's event, could I do it in COM Addin
module instead of Exchange client extension?

Thanks!

The Outlook object model does not expose any event when the user clicks that link. I guess you'd have to hook into it at the window level. Outlook also offers no way to disable that dialog in a non-Exchange profile.

"Xingren Ying" wrote in message news We have COM Addin component to handle Calendar (Tasks and Contacts)
subscription for the calendar in our non-Exchange server. In Outlook 2003,
these is a "Shared Calendar..." link on the left pane of Calendar's Explorer.
After clicking on this link, there is dialog box popup for calendar
subscription. We want using COM Addin to intersect this action event to hook
up our subscription program.

Question:
1. What is the event and the event source object in Outlook Object Module
when user clicking on the link?
2. If this event source is inaccessible by C++ COM Addin, how could I
disable this link.
3. What is the answer of above two questions for "Shared Tasks..." and
"Shared Contacts..." link?

Thanks!
