Hi,
I was wondering if I can create an Add In that has knowledge of any
command line arguments that were passed to Outlook. I can't seem to find
info on this anywhere.

Thanks,
Kwan
 
Thanks for the reply Sue! I was looking for the /stssync parameter but since
I can't get at them it doesn't matter. But thanks anyways.

Gee, that's one I don't remember. What does it do? I presume it's related to
the stssync protocol and has something to do with adding a WSS events or
contacts list to Outlook?

yup, it's for handling the stssync protocol. I wanted to do some extra
processing in case outlook receives a stssync protocol. But I guess I'll
have to go another route.
Thanks again.
 
My understanding of the stssync protocol is that all it does is add the
events or contacts list to Outlook (assuming the user says yes). So,
couldn't you monitor the active SharePoint Folders hierarchy for new
folders?

Do you have a usage example for the command-line switch? Sounds like
something I want to play with. Thanks.
