This page is still a work in progress.

The OutlookTools UDF offers some often needed extended functionality to control and manipulate Microsoft Outlook. It is built on top of the OutlookEX UDF.

General

Most of the functions provide a callback function which is called before an Outlook item is created. This gives more flexibility to the user. You decide how the item is being handled by setting the return value:

Return value	Action
0	Create the Outlook item
1	Do not create the Outlook item, continue processing the next record
2	Do not create the Outlook item, cancel processing the remaining records and exit the _OLT_* function.

Functions

_OLT_iCal_VEventImport

Import iCal events from an ICS file to an Outlook calendar.

_OLT_vCard_Import

Import vCard contacts to an Outlook contacts folder.

_OLT_CSV_Import

Imports data from a CSV file and creates Outlook items in a specified folder.
