Export events to Outlook

Do anybody know how to export events to Outlook from a php script? I'm
making a list of events, and my idea is that when the user clicks on
the event it will be exported to his or hers Outlook-calendar. I don't
want to force the users to install any software (like a RSS-reader).

Thanks in advance,
Skraps

Outlook supports both iCalendar and vCalendar formats, so just create the
event as an iCalendar or vCalendar entry and pass it as a file
"my_event.v cs" with appropriate headers telling it's a calendar file,
outlook should be able to handle it then. This should work for Microshit
Outlook 2003 at least...

I have my code waiting for the close event from the COM and I call Quit() on the Outlook application but Outlook.exe still...

I have a custom Access database that is a bulk mailing program for my small business to send emails to my customers (not spam!). Before sending mail, I export a folder in Outlook to an Access MDB file and then open the custom database which runs a VB subroutine that iterates through the exported MDB file and loads in new Senders of email. I'd like to automate this further by eliminating the need to open Outlook and export the folder...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
