Exchange Custom Properties to Outlook Form

Guest

Hi Guys,

I'm using ASP.Net and WebDAV to create exchange appointments with data from
a webform attached as custom properties. The exchange custom properties have
the namespace "mtappointment:".

The client eventually wants to create an Outlook custom form that gets
populated with the custom property values from exchange. The idea is that the
outlook form will mirror the information captured on the webform.

I've verified that the appointments are being created and that the custom
properties are all there, but - as an Outlook newbie - I have no idea if it's
possible to access the custom exchange properties with an outlook custom
form. So, is it possible and how would I go about creating a form/script to
do this?

Exchange and Outlook are both 2003.

Thanks in advance!

Okay, I just figured this one out.

In case anyone else runs into this (highly unlikely!) the solution is to
create your properties with WebDAV using the namespace:
http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/{00020329-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/

Then create fields on the outlook form that retrieve their value from a
user-defined field with the same name as the custom property created using
WebDAV.
