Outlook 2003 update calendar issue

[macavelli]

the request I was sent is as follows:

"I need to send a large number of staff a confirmation e-mail stating they

have nominated to attend a certain training session and their request has

been approved.

In this e-mail I provide them with the date, time and location of their

training.

A large number of staff forget to attend because they don't add the training

sessions information to their Outlook Calendar with a reminder.

I don't send this e-mail in the form of an Invitation/Meeting Request

because I don't want to receive all the accept or decline e-mails.

I'd like to add a button to my confirmation e-mail that says "Add to my

Calendar" and when they click on this button it pasts the appropriate

information into their calendar and sets a reminder for them to attend the

training session."

I have found that it require creating a custom Outlook form with code behind it to create the appointment. The form would, then have to be published in the Organizational Forms library

my issue is I cant find anything reasonably close to what I want to do in any of the help sections.

any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

thanks mac
