Serialisation of Exchange 2003 Public Folder Calendar   
Hi,

I have an exchange 2003 server, the server has several public
folders.  One of these folders contains multiple sub folders that are
all calendar items.  These calendars are used for booking the meeting
rooms in our building.

I need to find someway of periodically serializing this information to
XML files so they can be picked up by other programs on our system.

I have a little experience wring basic scripts in VBScript - and as
long as it's possible, i just need pointing in the right direction.

Obviously writing the VBS to write the XML to disk is no issue, but
can someone suggest what I should look at to deal with the other areas
of the problem.

1.  Where to install a script on exchange
2. Can the script be run automatically when a change is made to a
public folder
3. How do I get the information about the calendar items out of
exchange so I can then write them in the XML.

Many thanks for any suggestions

Re: Serialisation of Exchange 2003 Public Folder Calendar   
Hello,

from VBScript you can use multiple approaches: Use CDO to logon to a profile 
and access the appointments. If you are on the Exchange server itself, you 
can use ExOleDB. Another option is WebDAV. You should take a look at the 
Exchange SDK on MSDN for more infos.

Kind regards,
Henning Krause
