Is Thunderbird/Sunbird the only one that can read and write .ics files on network folder?

I have an ics calendar file that is store on a network folder.
Thunderbird/Sunbird can read and write entries very well.
Now i am looking for an alternative.
It seem to be that Thinderbird (with Lighning) or Sunbird, is the only one that can write
ics file. Outlook, e.g can only read the calendar file.
Outlook can create ICS files just fine either through its UI (File | Save As) or programmatically (AppointmentItem.SaveAs(..., olICal)

Send an individual attachment from Outlook to OneNote

I frequently use the "Send to OneNote" button in MS Outlook to save emails and their attachments in my notebooks. This allows me to accumulate an array of different inputs (e.g. email, reports, estimates in spreadsheets, etc, etc - I'm preaching to the converted, I think).
Often, I'd like to move a single email attachment to a OneNote page. My process for this is:
open the email
save the attachment to the Desktop
open the desired destination page in OneNote
drag the file from the Desktop to the OneNote page
select the "Insert the file as printout so I can add notes to it" option
I do this to save only the attachment I need and avoid saving the contents of the email and all the other attachments.
Can I send an individual attachment directly from Outlook to a OneNote page?
Shortly after writing this question (actually, as I was writing the question!), I found an answer that works for me.
Click and drag the attachment filename from the Outlook email directly to a OneNote page. The file insert dialog then pops up allowing insertion of an icon or printout.

Excel Workbook Open event from within an addin?

I am trying to trigger a macro to run when an Excel document is opened.
The problem I am running into is that all of my code resides within an Excel add-in. The Workbook_Open event doesn't work because I can't put the code in individual documents, I need it to reside in the add-in and run whenever any document is opened.
Is there a way to modify the Workbook_Open event or is there another way to trigger a macro when a different document is opened?
You need to use an Application event. There is a good writeup on how to do this at Chip Pearson's site here.

VBScript to exe

I have written a code to create a new menu in MS Word and do some functions. I have written VBScript code in the scripting window which opens when i do Alt+F11.
I cannot send the code to the customer and have to bundle it in an exe file or some other file and send it to user.
How do i do that.
If i create an exe file when the user runs it the menu button should be cretaed in MS Word on users machine.
Thanks

The simplest options are:
Add the VBA to the normal template and you can make it run when Word loads to add your menu items.
Create an add-in from the macro project (These can be read only/password protected)
Create a managed/VSTO add-in

Outlook programmatically avoid Attachment.SaveAsFile() Pop-up on XSL

I have developed a Outlook polling service that does the following:
The service is not a windows service but a rich client.
It is developed in Visual Basic 6.
The "robot" basicly polls outlook for new mails
If a new mail is found the Attachment.SaveAsFile(path) is used to save each attachment.
When I save Excel files (xls) extension. Outlook will launch Excel and Excel will pop-up with the following message with older xsl files (prior excel 2000).
"Do you want to save the changes to 'SaveAttFromBlaBla.xsl'?
"Microsoft Office Excel recalculates formulas when opening files last saved by an earlier version of Excel."
Does anyone know of a way to not have the pop-up occur? And by default select "Yes" to recalculate?
Thanks
Use
Excel.Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Works with Word as well.
