Its been about a year since I played with MS Digital Dashboard. I think the
is a ActiveX component. It only work if
1. Outlook is install on that client computer.
2. Outlook has been configured
ActiveX component only show what outlook can show.

Thanks for the help so far. I downloaded digital dashboard, but I am not
running NT2K yet, so I can't implement it to the general populace.
HOWEVER, there is a page of code in the digital dashboard that will retrieve
your Outlook email. I just copied the code onto a ColdFusion page and it
worked instantly. I did not change 1 single line of the code.
What the code does is query the system for the Outlook mail information, and
use that to open the mailbox.
Security is my next investigation. If two people share a computer I am not
sure what will happen.
If anyone wants the code to do this, just email me. It is very short.

FWIW, you can do this stuff in ASP - there's something called a Digital
Dashboard, with pre-developed applications to access the Inbox,
Calendar, COntacts etc. You could combine ASP pages with Coldfusion if
that's possible in your case.

Subject: Getting Outlook information
My company uses Microsoft Outlook as the mail client.
I am wondering if I can grab information from outlook and put it on my
customized intranet home page.
For instance, can I put a link in my coldfusion page that calls the
user's
Outlook calendar and shows it on the page? What about the number of new
messages, etc? Basically I want to grab the features of the "Outlook
Today"
tools in outlook.
