Hey all
I could sure use some help. I have a need to handle a custom protocol
hyperlink within Outlook. I've done this on Apple OS X, but I need a PC
solution also.
Here's what's going on: my users are going to get hyperlinks with a custom
type in their email (example: newhttp://www.someplace.com). When they click
on the link in Outlook, I want a script to process the link and take some
action.
On the Mac, I used an Applescipt bundled as an application, and then told
the system that this script was the default handler for this 'newhttp:'
protocol.
Is this even possible in VBA? Can anyone point me in a direction to start
figuring it out, if it is?
I'm afraid I'm not nearly as good as Windows programming/scripting, but I'm
willing to explore other options if there's something besides VBA that will
let me get it done...
I'd appreciate any insight!
