>I just tested the application and it still did not automatically populate the other user's calendar. This may have been due to the ambiguous recipient as Outlook selected "temp" and "temp2" as the potential recipients. I did a manual test within Outlook, setting the meeting and inviting the attendee. When I selected selected send, a dialog box came up that stated that 2 potential recipients were selected (temp and temp2) I selected "temp", where I wanted the request to go, and it sent the request to the e-mail in box of the "temp" recipient. The recipient then has to accept the meeting. This is the functionality they already have. The users want to have the calendar automatically populated with these appointments. Some of the users get up to 90/day so they don't want to have to accept them--just put it in the calendar.

>There appears to be the two issues now:
>1. auto-selecting ambiguous recipients

When the two recipients are different Outlook should not have any problem resolving them. I have seen conflicts appear when the recipient has fax, pager, etc. in the address list, unfortunately I have no idea how would you resolve those. You might want to try forcing resolution with the Resolve method. (I think it's in the recipient object / collection)

>2. having the appointment go directly to the recipients calendar without the additional steps of accepting the meeting.

There is a sample script in the Exchange Server installation that can be put in each user's Inbox to automatically accept meeting requests. The example is for adding resources (like a conference room) but can be easily modified to your needs. This is explained in a file called AUTOACCEPT.TXT (which I think also contains the script). This script traps an event that fires each time an item is received. I do not have the file handy but I'm certain you can find it in your Exchange server files along with instructions. HTH

>>>>>I am trying to populate several individuals' Outlook calendars with appointments from a table populated with tasks and due dates. I have seen how I can create the appointment for an individual, but I need to have it go to about 4 others' calendars as well. Is there a 'users' type of object where I can identify who's calendar to populate the appointment with? The client has MS Exchange.

>>>I tested this at the client site today (we're not running Exchange Server). It does what I want for the machine I'm logged in on, but it does not populate the appointments for the others. We checked to ensure that the user that I was logged in as had rights to the Outlook of the other (receiving) test user (adding the sending user's name into the receiving user's list of Publishers? I think, was the setting.) Could there be any other permissions issues that prevent the appointments from being populated by another?

>>The appointment needs to be marked as a meeting in the MeetingStatus property. You need to set it to olMeeting.
