customize first page appointment form

I would like to customize the first page of the appointment form, so that it
can be linked to our "meeting room booking system" (php/mysql), so that the
date-time information of the appointment can be used to determine the free
rooms in the booking systeem.
I have designed outlook forms before, but the first page of the custom
appointment form cannot be editted.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
 
As we've already discussed at http://www.outlookcode.com/threads.aspx?forumid=3&messageid=12556, it is not possible to customize the layout of the first page of an Outlook appointment form. Any customization of the form layout itself needs to take place on one of the customizable pages provided.

Maybe you need to be thinking beyond custom forms and considering whether a COM add-in might provide the integration surface you need.

Hmm, okay! Sorry to be "doubling" you.
So you think my description of my problem can be solved with a COM addin?,
can you help me where to people to make these COM addins for me?

Some developers are listed at http://www.slipstick.com/dev/devlist.asp. You would have to work with a programmer to develop the specification for what you want your add-in to do and how you want the user to interact with it.
