>>>>>Has anyone had Fox exchange info w/Outlook's Calendar? I see that there's an import/export facility, but I wanted to make it real-time, if possible, with a program I wrote for a Physical Rehabilitation firm and its patients.

>>>Meant to say OLE, not DDE. My mistake. Re VFP & Outlook, so far, so good. I've gotten it (the calendar) to fire from VFP using a KB article from the MSDN CD. I can't seem to find how to add a contact record directly from VFP into Outlook (I'm new to this OLE stuff). I looked at the Vbaoutl.hlp file and it seems like a lot hinges on these item indexes, which I can't find the table for. VFP has numbers representing these indexes, and VB has words. If anyone has any more clues, I'd appreciate it.

Each is a slightly different variant of VB. VBA is Visual Basic for Applications. This is used by Office 97 products and is licensed to several other vendors. VBScript was designed for Internet use.
