I looked into the same thing a while back. It might have changed for OfficeXP, but in prior versions there is simply no way to do this. You can link to most Office objects, as you've obviously found. But you can't link to specific dates.

Although I've not been sucessful in getting a reliable way to go directly to the right date, I thought I'd suggest the following basic addition: calendar.js -- additional function == function outlook(dat) { //TODO - find out how to open at a particular date DQSDLauncher.OpenDocument("outlook:calendar"); } preferences.js == * Valid calendars include: * yhocal - Yahoo Calendar .... * outlook - open MS Outlook default calendar By the way the vbscript or VBA required to control the currently displayed date in Outlook 2000 is not nice at all, I think it would invole either inspectors and command bars, or simulating key presses or something silly. Messy stuff to get right and maintain for different configurations. It's particularly horrible when you come from UNIX-land where you expect eveything to have a command line switch. If anyone can suggest a clean way to do this I would love to hear about it. -- Sean Farrell ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek PC Mods, Computing goodies, cases & more http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dqsd-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dqsd-users http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=8601 ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek PC Mods, Computing goodies, cases & more http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dqsd-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dqsd-users http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=8601
