Is there a way to tell if a specific appointment/task has been modified?

I am trying to see if specific appointments or tasks have been modified
since the last sync date. Is there a way to do this using Win32 and not
MFC?

I am writing a small app that needs to be able to build a list of
appointments and tasks that have been modified in any way since the last
sync. I have looked in the POOM documentation and in the on-line help
and I can not see any properties or anything that would indicate to me
that the appointment or task is "dirty".

Is this even possible?

Thanks,
-Eric

All the new entries will not have a server ID. The server Id is got when
sync is completed - so you could check for that or implement your own
tombstones or register for change notifications.

Ok, so the question for me is then if I create a dll that grabs
notification changes, since it will be running all the time, would this
be a bad method of programming? I need to monitor for changes or
additions/deletions so that I can keep track of what to do, but I don't
want to eat up processing power either.

Looking for the server Id is just fine, but then once the appointment
has been synced and received an Id, then I won't be able to get any new
changes. So the notification change is the only method that will work
for me.
