Hello

I am working on some code to import Outlook appointments into org-mode.  It will use the Wsh Repl (http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs-en/WshRepl) to talk to the Windows Scripting Host to connect to outlook to retrieve the meetings.

So far it is going well, but I have a question:

I plan on storing the outlook meeting entry IDs in the created tasks inside of org, this way I can be sure not to re-create any previously imported meetings.  Is this best stored as a property? Is there already an established ID property I can use?  (FYI, the outlook EntryID is a 140 (!) digit hex number.)

Thanks!
