Hi, I am considering a project to provide our sales staff with
information from a central business system (Win2K3/ASP/SQL2K)and file
server,
The problem is thier tool of choice is Outlook as the functions are
contact/calendar based and they are remote/home based, accessing the
business system over a VPN.
If it goes ahead, I will probably procure a hosted exchange solution
for them but without knowing upfront if SQL integration is possible ,
it may be the wrong choice. These are the types of things I will need
to program in, anyone have any thoughts on this?
Is it possible create calendar items automatically in ASP code from an
application ? Can it be done with a hosted Exchange Server and remote
Outlook users (i.e over http not on a LAN)
Also can contact items in Exchange/Outlook be imported ,exported and
merged programatically from/to a remote SQL server or using a Web
service?
Can anyone direct me to any resources that discuss SQL/Outlook
integration advantages, limitations, example projects.
Thanks
