As part of an application solution it is necessary to modify the appointment
form in ways not supported by VBA, the intent is to modify the Outlook
appointment form at run time via an Add-In. The required modifications go
beyond what is supported by VBA as it is required to modify the first and
subsequent pages (which may or may not be populated at the time of
modification). The Add-In modifies the pages by updating the forms data
structure directly.
The update procedures would be:
Locate the default appointment form, then the first page. Navigate the forms
data structure looking for the appropriate control then modify the control in
some way (visible, enabled, caption etc...)
Locate any page on the required form, Add controls to the forms data structure
The control updating (modify or add) is totally under the control of the
Add-In
Questions
Will the implementation strategy outlined above work for changing the
appointment form in Outlook
If so, then is there example code which demonstrates this (or similar)
Is there any inherit difference in Outlook which restricts the implementation
Is there an alternate method to achieve the same result
