Write from Outlook Calendar to Access Database
We have an application that dymaically writes from an Access Database to a Shared Public Exchange Calendar. When a user changes a date in the Database, it automatically adds, deletes or moves the item on this public calendar.
Now the users want to be able to move one of the items on the OUtlook Calendar and have it change the date in the Access Database.
How can I do this? I do have unique data that I link the field with the OUtlook object, so that isn't a problem. I just don't know in Outlook VBA how to tell it to look at a Calendar entry and when it changes to do something.
Cheers for any guidance!

That feature just creates a linked table. We have our database that as users add and move things in different tables/fields, etc, then the Calendar updates.
However, now the users to go the other way.
I have a public calendar called "Study Schedule", and when a user moves an item from one date to another, I have to have it go change some things in access.
I can't figure out how to know in Outlook VBA that a Public Calendar item has been moved/deleted/edited, etc.
If I can figure that out, I should be good to go.

Then this seems to be more complex than I had originally thought...
