You can include the Exchange OLE DB (ExOLEDB) provider type library (EXOLEDB.DLL) in any Microsoft® Visual Basic® project.

In implementing your Visual Basic event sinks in a Component Object Model (COM) class, you name event methods by prefixing the event names with the interface name. Use the following event method names:

IExStoreSyncEvents_OnSyncSave
IExStoreSyncEvents_OnSyncDelete
IExStoreAsyncEvents_OnSave
IExStoreAsyncEvents_OnDelete
IExStoreSystemEvents_OnMDBStartUp
IExStoreSystemEvents_OnMDBShutDown
IExStoreSystemEvents_OnTimer

When implementing event methods as scripts, you prefix all event methods with "ExStoreEvents_". For example, the OnSyncSave event in a script would be ExStoreEvents_OnSyncSave.
