The book is beyond excellent, but that is not why I am writing this review. Sue Mosher put a book together for all levels of Outlook users. From the novice trying to extend the usefulness of Outlook to the programmer tasked with creating a custom solution. Between this book (and her others), her work with www.slipstick.com, and her own www.outlookcode.com--she is the greatest Outlook\Exchange coding resource I could name. What makes it even better is that when you happen to email her a 'code dilemma' question she'll write you back and set you straight.

This book is such a blessing to us power users looking for starting or jumping off point into useful programming.

As a former 5 yr sales rep for end user trainng manuals now turned sales engineer, I never had the patience for all those beginning programming books building "birdhouses" and "hello world." Thank you for giving us wannabe programmers a purposeful, immediate and relevant starting point!

An excellent high and low level view of programming Outlook 2000/XP. For an experienced programmer, the majority of the chapters get right into the code/objects/events/models you'll need. The code examples are not "toys", but (fortunately) are brief enough to focus on the subject being discussed.
Novice and experienced programmers will appreciate the overview of the VBA environment/language within Outlook.
Reading this book answered specific questions I needed answered about customization, and erased that "where do I start" feeling I had about programming in Outlook. Great book!
