Microsoft® Outlook® 2000 included an object model to support programmatic access to the features in the Microsoft Outlook View Control.

Some time ago I coded this with Excel 2000 and Outlook 2000.

I just tried with Office 2003 using IE7 and it works OK, see below image.

Here is an Example workbook.

Can Do

Below is an example workbook that creates the html code to show your Outlook calendar or Inbox view in your browser.

Overview: From here

The Microsoft Outlook View Control displays information about a specific folder and can be integrated into solutions to provide access to Outlook data. The control can be placed in any container that supports ActiveX controls, including an HTML page, a Microsoft Visual Basic form, a Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications UserForm, or a custom Outlook form. You can programmatically set the control's properties to customize the folder and view that is displayed in the control.

The control can be used to create a variety of solutions that are designed to integrate Outlook data. For example, you can place multiple view controls on an HTML page so that a user can view the contents of more than one folder within a single window. This can be useful in a scenario where you want to display calendar information for more than one user at the same time.

One of the key features of the Outlook View Control is that you can use the Restriction property of the control to filter out certain types of data. For example, you can display the Tasks folder in the Outlook View Control, and then filter the folder to show only those tasks for a certain contact.
