Import vCalendar items on the fly to outlook

[adamfharris]

Hello,

We are doing some development for a Vet clinic that uses a software
program called "Cornerstone" to manage appointments for animals. The
Vets at the clinic use Outlook/Exchange to manage their personal/work
calendars.

We have punched a hole in Cornerstone that allows us to extract
appointments for each Vet and create any type of file format we
want.

What we want to do is create a vCal document and "push"/automatically
import this file in the Dr.'s Outlook calendar every five minutes or
so. That way they could be notified anytime an appointment was
schedule.

Does anyone have a streamlined way to do this?

We are using Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2007. Again, we can create any
type of file we want from the appointments coming out of Cornerstone.
Thanks.

Why not just use the Outlook object model to directly create the Outlook
appointments?
