Outlook appointment category

Hi guys,

I've been put the task of comming with a "simple" apointment alerter, Based on the Outlook app...
So I started browing the oultlook dll....
I've noticed that it is possible to "see" an appointments category, or even to set it, but it is not possible to create a NEW category...Is this correct?
Is there any work around?
It would make searching the apoitments much easier as they would be categorized in a very particular way...

Just a quick question before shutting down my laptop:

What happens if you code

Code:

Appointment.Categories = "MyNewCategory"

just before you save it?

It errors, because the category was not yet created....
So there should be a "createCategory" method....
