Hi everybody

is any way to retrieve the account name under which the local machine Outlook is running
I will be running a desktop app on several machiens which will read their calendat and after that move all the info to a repository
So, I need to identify which calendar belong to whom by using the profile/account used by Outlook
I've looked all over the web and I was not able to find it
Thank you in advance for your answer

Regards, Simon

Exchange account? Use the user name from the top level of the mailbox.

Then what "account" are you referring to, if not the user's Exchange
mailbox?
