From the Publisher:Outlook 2000 is an important part of the Office 2000 program suite, and will be available in the Premium, Professional, Standard and Small Business editions of Office 2000. At present, most people use Outlook for sending and receiving emails and little else, however, Outlook 2000 is set to become a very powerful organizational tool. Outlook 2000 now hosts VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) and hence there is a strong emphasis on between-application automation, Using VBA, the user can program his or her own programs in what is essentially a subset of the Visual Basic programming languages. This is neat because it allows you to automate a lot of mailing and calendaring tasks that would otherwise take up a lot of time - one press of a button could take names from an Access database, write a letter in Word addressed to each individual, and then email all the letters at once. This book presents a full reference to the Outlook object model - which is essentially the object-oriented system of organizing the functional capacities that make up the Outlook program. There will be a short introduction to VBA itself, and the rest of the book will document aspects of programming Outlook through that object model. This book will be in three broad sections: the first part introduces Outlook and VBA; the second offers interesting, thematic discussions of the workings of the Outlook 2000. The third and final part offers a full reference to the Outlook object model.
