create an automatic calendar entry when a specific

Guest

I am looking for a way to create an automatic calendar entry when a specific
e-mail hits my Inbox.

I was hoping to do it thru the Rules Wizard, but it looks like it may
require more porgrammatic effort than I imagined.

Can somebody make a suggestion?

What I am looking for is the following:

When an e-mail from specific sender and subject hits Inbox, I want an event
created in Calendar on a specific date and a reminder of this event pop-up a
certain period of time prior to the event due date.

Is this too sophisticated to be done easily?

Thanks for input.

Hi Dmitry,

depending on your OL version you can use the Rules for detecting the
incoming e-mails or use the Inbox Items´ ItemAdd event. Please search in
the VBA help for ItemAdd and you´ll find a sample.

In that event you can check the Item´s subject and sender address, which
is also depending on your version.

For creating an Appointmentitem you can use the CreateItem method. A
sample is also available in the VBA help.
