I posted a question a little earlier regarding the location of the code that creates meeting invitations. I’ve been thinking about the problem, and I may be stuck looking for the wrong solution.
Some more detail…
I have modified the mailfile for a Calendar application that my company has. Specifically, at this point I have modified the (Alarm Options) subform to give the user a new alarm option. This application is being rlledout across organisations, so all of the users have the same mail template, with this new option.
The problem is that when a user creates a meeting and invites participants to it, their setting of this new field is being sent out as part of the meeting invite. So if they have it turned on, all of the invited recipients get it turned on as well.
This is not good.
My original idea was to find out where the invites were created and strip the field out of them before they were mailed, but I can’t find that fragment of code. So now I’m looking for any other suggestions as to how to solve this little problem.
BTW - the new field in the (Alarm Options) subform is basically the same as the $AlarmMemoOptions field hat’s already there, in case anyone can think of a way to modify that to achieve the result.
