1) Neither. "Macros" refers specifically to code written in the VBA environment inside Outlook, for personal use.

2) No, the entire UI is not customizable. The Help file in VBA provides guidance on what is possible. You can also ask specific questions here about what you would like to do.

3) You can add buttons to any toolbar or menu exposed through the Explorer.CommandBars or Inspector.CommandBars collection for the main window and individual item window, respectively.

Much of what you want is built in to Exchange 2007+Outlook 2007. For Outlook 2003, though, your first task is to decide how you are going to store all that information that Outlook itself doesn't expose directly -- projector, computer, video, phone is needed or not and after. One solution might be maintain a list of conference rooms and their capabilities in a public folder.

Also, you need to start thinking about what kind of add-in you want to build, because you are going to have to build a dialog to show the user the conference rooms meeting their requirements. This is not a project suitable for VBA.

If you have all the capabilities of each room in a public folder, you can search that for matching rooms using the MAPIFolder.Recipients.Add method, then use the Recipient.FreeBusy method to check the availability of qualified rooms.

This is not a project suitable for VBA.

Thanks u have given me some idea to do the task.

I think we can build a simple form in which checkboxes will be there for
selection of phone,pc,vedio etc and one button to find now. on clicking
button we should dispaly all the conf rooms those r free (by readig public
folder as you said) on the same box in list view and on double cliking list
view item we can book tht conf room for user. isnt it prety simple?

Just the problem for me is i want to add button tht will display above
dialog box in following location:

Tools - forms - Design Forms - appointments -- scheduling
(beside the start time and meeting end time)

button name will be "find conf room" on clicking this button it will show
above dialog with checkboxes and one button "find now". what u think will it
work? how i can add button on specified location?

That's not possible with a custom form. If you want to add a button to the toolbar, you need to build an add-in. On a custom form, you can add buttons only to customizable pages, such as the P.2 page on the appointment form.

Again, to meet your goals, you need to build an add-in, and yes, it's more complicated. You can't do it with just a custom form and VBA code, which are what my book covers. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=36 and http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=42
