How to Populate .msg File Used in Command Line

[MikeLH33]

I have a .msg file I saved as a boilerplate for Calendar requests that will
be programmatically started in an application I am developing. I want to be
able to modify the Calendar request's date, time, duration, and message
contents based on the user's inputs prior to opening the .msg file. After
the user verifies the contents, he/she will click the <Send> button.

Currently, from the command line, I can run
"c:\program files\microsoft office\office12\outlook.exe" /f
"c:\p_review\PR.msg"

The Calendar request opens with the boilerplate. However, I cannot find any
documentation to explain how I can modify the boilerplate contents.

Thanks,
MikeLH33

Change it the way you want, then click File>Save As and save it as a msg file
again.
