Hello, I would like to be able to send an email or an sms when I add an
appointment to my shared calendar so that other persons are alerted and
reminded to check the calendar. Is this possibile with outlook 2003 /
2005? How do do it?

Thanks in advance!

These pages may have tools to help with this if you don't want to write your own Outlook VBA code: http://www.slipstick.com/addins/pager.htm and http://www.slipstick.com/addins/notify.htm

Thanks for your answer but I can't seem to find what I am looking for.
I see tons of tools that lets you send sms or emails when a reminder is
triggered. But I need to send ans sms when an appointment is created.
Is there a VBA event to handle this?
Thanks again.

The VBA event is MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd. Some of the tools at the 2nd URL should provide notification for new items.
