Is anyone familiar with how to add an appontment to a shared mailbox on MS Exchange?

I have the code in place that adds the appointment to the user's calendar in the default profile, but I would like to change this to add it to a group/shared Calendar.

Any pointers???

I've included Microsoft's code example for Access 97 (which also works with 2000).
I'm running Access 2K and Outlook/Exchange 2K.

Private Sub AddAppt_Click()
On Error GoTo AddAppt_Err
' Save record first to be sure required fields are filled.
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
' Exit the procedure if appointment has been added to Outlook.
If Me!AddedToOutlook = True Then
MsgBox "This appointment already added to Microsoft Outlook"
Exit Sub
' Add a new appointment.
Else
Dim outobj As Outlook.Application
Dim outappt As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Set outobj = CreateObject("outlook.application")
Set outappt = outobj.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
With outappt
.Start = Me!ApptDate & " " & Me!ApptTime
.Duration = Me!ApptLength
.Subject = Me!Appt
If Not IsNull(Me!ApptNotes) Then .Body = Me!ApptNotes
If Not IsNull(Me!ApptLocation) Then .Location = _
Me!ApptLocation
If Me!ApptReminder Then
.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = Me!ReminderMinutes
.ReminderSet = True
End If
.Save
End With
End If
' Release the Outlook object variable.
Set outobj = Nothing
' Set the AddedToOutlook flag, save the record, display a message.
Me!AddedToOutlook = True
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
MsgBox "Appointment Added!"
Exit Sub
AddAppt_Err:
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & Err.Description
Exit Sub
End Sub

Thanks!
Willy
