How to add an appointment (event) to outlook calendar from ASP page

Tom Hwang

Hi,

I want to add an appointment (event) to outlook
calendar from ASP page. I will collect the date/time,
subject, and description of the event from ASP page and
save the information to outlook. How can I do that. I
never prgrammed anything between ASP page and outlook at
all.

Thank you very much for your help!

ASP or ASP.NET? In either case, the best approach may be to generate an
iCalendar item that the user can save to their calendar.

Hi Sue,

Thank you for your reply. Is there any section of your
outlook books mentioned how to program this function (add
an appointment (event) to outlook calendar) on either ASP
or ASP.NET? Or any sample codes that you can think of for
me?

Thanks again for your help!

My book does not cover ASP or ASP.NET at all, since that's a quite advanced
topic.

If you're using Exchange as your mail server, Tom Rizzo's book will give you
some ideas. Otherwise, search for ASP (or ASP.NET) and iCalendar. Another
approach would be to create an ASP.NET custom web control that runs
client-side code to create the appointment; I'm working on a sample project,
which I'll post at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/index.htm when it's ready.
