Code Sample: AdventureWorks2008 Declarative Outlook Solution

  • Articolo

Applies to: SharePoint Server 2010

The AdventureWorks2008 Declarative Outlook Solution sample enables you to track contacts from a database external system by accessing them in Microsoft Outlook as native Outlook contacts. This sample enables you to create, edit, and delete customers in the back-end external system. The external system is the AdventureWorks 2008 sample database, which is a sample database provided by Microsoft for free.

This sample provides a task pane visible in the Outlook Contact view that shows a list of all orders placed by a customer in the database. The task pane also displays the details of a customer order when the order is selected from the list.

Finally, a URL-based action is provided. This action searches the MSN White Pages to look up the contact's telephone number as a parameter and to provide contextual information.
