How do I add a calendar Button or link

Hey All,

How do I create a button or link in an email (Outlook 2007) and when the
recipient (external) of that email clicks the button it would update their
calendar with the detailed information about the meeting (date & time along
with some basic detail in the notes field).

I'm holding a seminar and I want to email a notice to my customers telling
them about the event.

At the bottom of that email I want a button that they could push (i.e. YES,
I want to ATTEND) that would update their calendar with the event details AND
send me a confirmation email that they want to attend.

Make sense? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for your help!!!

Tom
 
You may send a meeting request: Add the recipients to the appointment and
send that.

Is there a way to BCC someone in a meeting invite? I don't want everyone
seeing who is invited.

Thanks - Tom
 
Maybe this works: In the Application_ItemSend event check whether the item
is a MeetingItem, if so, loop through its Recipients collection and set each
item's Type = olBCC, and add yourself as Type=olTo.
