Traping Appointment creation/modification/deletion

[Guest]

Can one trap Appointment creation/modification/deletion? I have a db in
which appt are logged and am looking for a way to pass the info from Outlook
to MS Access. I thought the simplest way would be when the user works with
the appointments directly in Outlook. Any tips, code...

An alternative is to create a routine in Access to loop through the
appointments in Outlook, but I do not believe this to be the optimal method.

Any advise is appreciated.

The Outlook folders have events you can use for their Items collections such
as Add, Remove and Change. Both Add and Change pass the EntryID (GUID) of
the item being added or changed, which can be retrieved using
NameSpace.GetItemFromID. Do a search on those events at www.outlookcode.com
to find various samples of code working with those events in different
languages.
