Default [Outlook/Sharepoint] VB connection help.


Hey there,

i'm trying to make a little program for here on the job,
unfortunatly i wasnt able to get it working as i wanted it too.


explanation:
The goal is to make an application in VB that communicates with a SharePoint2007 server.
The application results in a Outlook Add-in button.

When clicking this button its the goal is that the email gets put in a task list (helpdesk tickets) on a SharePoint server.
For authentication it should use the windows login from the domain (can be filled in)

ad. info:
i'm kinda new to the while VB language, but learning on my way.
I'm searching for the last 4 days non stop to get solutions out of it,
but they wheren't that succesfull.

I dont want a fully written code to the solution, but just a little heads up, finger in the good direction.


what i found out:
There are several Microsoft.SharePoint libs to use,
External communications from a SharePoint is availible using SOAP xml calls,
but i dont get to work properly.



any idea's, fingers in the right directions, little code snippet headup would be rly thankfull.

Grtz Nick
