Security on the Calendar folder
 
Hi,
I am writing an Add-In to change the Security of the calendar on first
startup. The Security for the folder should be so that a global ADS group has
review access to the calendar.
How can I set the security content of that Folder? Via MAPI, CDO any help
would be welcome

Thanks

Markus

Security on the Calendar folder
 
In what Outlook version(s)? Why an add-in and not something the administrator runs?

Hi
The focus is on Outlook 2007. I know that it is possible to do it on the
exchange. But it differs on Exchange 2003/2007. I think a solution with
Outlook is more flexible. (Therefore the ADS group)

greetings
Markus

In Outlook 2007, you can do it with new SharingItem object. The Help toic on Namespace.CreateSharingItem should point you in the right direction.

I can't see why a solution that depends on an add-in being installed on each client machine would be considered more flexible than using something like PFDavAdmin or the equivalent in a custom script.
