A client sends emails to their clients announcing events. She requeste
that the recipients of the email be allowed to click on a link tha
will place the event in their Outlook calendar. I have seen thi
functionality on ebay. The link opens an Outlook calendar window wit
the topic filled in and the user can assign the time and other option
and then click to save.

Cany anyone enlighten me on how this is done? This is a low budge
client and is not going to spend thousands to add this functionality
If that is what it takes, no need to go into detail. If their is som
existing code or it can be completed for roughly $500 I'm interested i
details.

Thanks for any leads.

BTW-I attempted a search in this forum but kept getting error "mus
enter 4 words" which I had already done.

It's done with iCalendar -- either files stored on the web server or
generated on-the-fly by code on the server. You can create iCal items by
saving Outlook appointmenst with the File | Save As command.
