I've never used InfoPath before but need to create a registration form for
users who are all on the same server to fill out to register for training
sessions.  I think I can stumble through modifying one of the sample forms
that come with InfoPath.  I will be publishing the form to a network folder.  
I was told that the form should be designed so that once users submit their
registration, and I confirm it, the training session should automatically get
entered into the Outlook 2003 calendar, without them having to manually
create an appointment in their calendar.  I cannot figure out how to do this
on my own or via Infopath's online help.  Any guidance would be greatly
appreciated!

This functionality is not available in InfoPath, so you'll have to write code
to enable it. If you have either VBScript or JScript code that can add an
appointment to someone else's Outlook calendar, you can place that code
behind a button in InfoPath to enable that functionality.

I'd suggest asking your question in the Outlook newsgroup. Do not mention
InfoPath when you post your question there, since they'll refer you back to
this newsgroup. :)  Just say that you would like to use VBScript to add an
appointment to someone else's Outlook calendar and ask if anyone has sample
code that can do that.
