WebDAV create appointment using POST/PUT without testappoint |
|
|
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can give me pointers on how to create an
appointment using WebDAV without the need to specify testappointment.eml as
part of the URL
PROPPATCHRequest =
(System.Net.HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(strCalendarUri +
strApptItem);from the sample:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/e2k3/e2k3/_esdk_creating_an_appointment_webdav.asp
it would appear the the request method is PROPPATCH, at first I thought I
could replace it with a PUT/POST instead but neither works.
The reason why I do not want to use the PROPPATCH method (along with
specifying a .eml) is because I have found that you cannot create another
appointment without specifying a different .eml due to the fact that
PROPPATCH method is a way of updating an appointment or creating one if one
does not exist.
I have used CDO successfully to create a re-occuring appointment and I do
not see any need to specify a .eml file in order to instantiate an
appointment.
If anyone can also point me to more comprehensive WebDAV Exchange
specifications & examples that would be great. the current samples I have
found through exchange 2003sdk are not comprehensive enough for me to write
a feature rich appointment interaction application.
Thanks,
Robert Huie

Hello,
you can always use Guid.NewGuid().ToString() for a unique filename.... so
you don't have to worry about that.

Thanks Henning.
is this a standard approach to working around this behaviour?

Hello,
well Outlook uses the subject as filename. If multiple items have the same
subject, an unique number is appended...
