PR_CREATOR_NAME set only when first created?

[Jason Smyth]

I am working on a Addin to track appointments, but can someone just
clarify when the CDO property PR_CREATOR_NAME gets set...

If I create an appointment/meeting item will PR_CREATOR_NAME be set
only for the originator...whether that is in a user's own mailbox or
delegated one.

When a recipient accepts a meeting request, and a copy of the
appointment/meeting is added to their mbx calendar folder, will
PR_CREATOR_NAME be set to the originator name or mailbox user name for
where it has been accepted?

No, AFAIK it is set to the name of the user that was logged to Outlook when
the appointment was created, i.e. it will be the recipient the appointment
request, unless you directly access other user's folder using
Namespace.GetSharedDefaultFolder and create an appointment in that user's
Calendar folder.
