Hey Kevin,

If you've got access to the MSDN Libary (October) look for an article entitled "Automating Microsoft Outlook 98" by Mindy Martin in the technical papers. It shows the object model. It'd be a better resource than I on this subject. If you don't have access to that, you might try either the MSDN site or http://www.informant.com/mod/index.asp for a copy.
