Hi Guys

I have been given a task of automating the appointments form with
predefined headings within the body of the appointment.

I have some VBA experience but am unfamiliar with outlook object model
and events. can some one point me in the right direction

The idea is a user will double click from the calander view and create
an appointment with certains headings appearing with in the body.

Hope this is enough info

You can set text in the body by setting the value of the AppointmentItem.Body property. When in doubt, check the object browser: Press ALt+F11 to open the VBA environment in Outlook, then press F2.

Hi sue

Thanks for your reply, i have had a try at this but came to grief with
the formatting of the text eg lines then a bit of space. Number one
reason for purchasing your book.

Have found outlook a bit hard to get my head around more familiar with
excel and access.

Im sure the solution is simple, But finding it is the hard bit.

any more guidence or even better reference would be greatly appreciated

It's pretty hard to supply a solution without knowing the problem. The newsgroup interface at Developersdex (http://www.developersdex.com) does not automatically quote the text of the original message when you post a reply. Please take the time to quote the original message manually so that people reading your current response can understand what you're talking about. Otherwise, you may not receive the answer you're looking for.
