Hi Jim,
You're a programmer! Well, that will help. As I've not done this, I can only
point you in the right direction. You would have to use the Outlook COM
programming model to do this. All of the Office apps come with COM objects
that can be used to programatically do everything that the app can do. There
are .chm files in the Office program folders for each app. Use the Outlook
COM object model in an ASP app.
