c# accessing Outlook calendar from a custom Excel add-in

Question

Is it possible to create an add-in for Excel which accesses/imports a calendar from Outlook? I am using c# in Visual Studio 2010.

Answer 1

it is possible - Excel Add-In is a DLL library and you can do almost everything there. (I believe you already seen the MSDN page about developing add-ins: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb157876.aspx ). On the Outlook side, it is a bit more complicated, but Calendar folder is accessible via Outlook Interop and folder hierarchy. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=310244 and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.outlook.folder.aspx
