Hi!

Thank you for your quick response. This package seems to be a standalone package. Can I find out if you have done any simple example to sent vCalendar using this with JSP into Exchange/outlook mail box?

Thank you.
you'll need to create your vcal object and send it as an attachment (using JavaMail)
I am sorry for my naiveness in this matter. Are you able to assist me with how to create a vcal object? Thank you.
Grab the source from the above package and extract the code it uses to create vcal files.
Thank you. I shall give it a go.
Hi. I have had a look, but I really can't figure out where the vcal object is created. I am happy to increase the points, if you could help me in this topic.

There are very few vCal implementation in Java when I search on google. However, it seems like the vbscript has got more discussion in this topic. Is Java the wrong tech to implement this type of thing?
Have a look at the TerminMemory class.
It has an export_vCalendar() method.
