Default Monitoring for changes

You can handle the ItemChange and ItemAdd events of the Items collection of
that folder. When an item is saved or added in that collection you will fire
those events. You can also monitor for items being opened (NewInspector
event of the Inspectors collection) and handle the Write event to get
changes before the save is made. That won't work with in-cell editing in a
folder view however.

Hi

[Using Outlook 2003 (SP2)]

I want to write a little program which monitors a particular public
journal and logs date, time, old/new value, who is making the change (and
potentially other information) each time an item changes. Is there
anything in the object model to help me or do I need to do most of it
myself.

Ideally, I'd like Outlook to tell me (by raising an event) just before an
item is edited so I can capture the various data I need.

Thanks

Simon
