What I wanted to is a one click import of calendar items into the local users computer.
Every computer in the company has outlook.
Lets say I just want to import the yearly holiday list.
That would only be about a dozen items. A full calendar is not necessary.
If the user wanted to see the company calendar they can goto the public folders
in outlook to see that calendar. I just wanted a one click import.
The problem of just hyperlinking to a .vcs is there is too many prompts and then
they have to save the item. If I'm the user I already lost interest after importing 2 items.
