The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Add Appointment to Specific Outlook Calendar from Access

Zones: Microsoft Access Database, Microsoft Programming

Tags: VBA - Microsoft Access

I was just able to successfully add an appointment from access to outlook using the general instructions here:

http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=31517

However, our setup is like this...We have a call-center where people take sales calls. They schedule a salesman to go out--and his calendar is the one that must be updated.

The Outlook calendars run off of an Exchange Server, and the salesmens' calendars are shared.

Anyone know how I can take the code I have and modify it to add the appointment to a specific calendar (a salesperson's shared calendar) rather than just the default (mine)?

Thanks!
