exchange 2000 question - 03/04/2003 14:51

For those out there that use/admin Exchange 2000 - does anyone know of a script that can be used to generate an HTML page containing free/busy data of specified users - kind of like an in out board?

I found this a few months ago, and it does exactly what I want. But, some of the features it uses I suspect are no longer featured or supported, particularly in Office XP. It seems like there should be a way to do it, but I'm not experienced enough with WSH/VBScript to know.

We are running Exchange 2000, clients are running Outlook XP.

Gee, that feature has been built-in to Lotus Notes for several years now...

Why not run the VBscript on a spare non-Office XP client installation to generate the html? I'm not sure this would work but maybe you could install Outlook 2000 on the web server just for this purpose - this would make serving the resultant output easier too I guess.

Good point. I gave this some consideration today but believe it or not, we are lacking a copy of Office 2000. I'll have to rummage through the stacks of CDs again though, since this appears to be the stumbling block...

...or I could just migrate our whole office over to Notes tomorrow
