Is it possible to create a hyperlink (in a word document
or email) that would create a new outlook appointment item?

I know you can access 'exisitng' items with the hyperlink
sytax: "outlook:Calendar", but can you create a 'new' item
for the user to then save to their calendars?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Ken
 
"path to outlook.exe" /c ipm.appointment

The syntax below seems to only work from a command prompt,
and not when imbedded in a hyperlink. Is there a way to
have a 'Hyperlink' automatically open the new
appointment? This command line syntax is cool, though.
Is it possible to put in a default subject, time, lcation,
etc. I couldn't find any additonal information on
switches/arguments that would do this with the command
line '/c' switch.

Thanks

Thanks for the info
 
You can create a batch file that you call from within Word. Also you can
create a default appointment and save it as an oft-file and call that from
within Word.
