Can I determine if an item is in a shared calendar?

[Tadwick]

Given an item object, can I programmatically determine if it belongs to the
current user or is in a shared folder?

If you are using Outlook 2007, read the Parent property (returns MAPIFolder
object), then read the MAPIFolder.Store.ExchangeStoreType property - check
whether it is olPrimaryExchangeMailbox vs olExchangeMailbox.

Dmitry,

This doesn't work for shared folders:

Hmmm.. So when you get Null from Folder.Store, you have a delegate folder...
