Write to Appointment headers??

I have a custom solution that pushes Appoinments from a Public Exchange
folder to users' mailboxes using a custom Outlook Appt. form. Since
management of these Appts. occurs in the Public folder users' changes to
their local copies are discarded on Item_Write().

I would like to be able to notify users when they open their local copy that
it is essentially "Read-only". Currently I am doing this with a MessageBox, I
would prefer to display a message on the form instead of all the dialogs.

Is it possible to write to the box that displays above the Subject line for
a past Appt.? On a Mail item this box would display text like "You forwarded
this message" and I believe you can modify a Mail item's Internet headers to
put your own text here. (I used to know how to do this, any help here also
appreciated!)

I have tried modifying the Appts FlagRequest, FlagStatus properties but they
do not show when the Appt. is opened, only in a Table View when I add these
fields.

Any help greatly appreciated.

The InfoBar is not exposed to your code. You can however modify the Caption
property of the Inspector to include "read-only" or whatever.
