      Welcome to the "Extending Enterprise Applications with Microsoft Outlook Sample" This sample and the associated whitepaper guidance demonstrates an approach to integrating data from an enterprise CRM system with Microsoft Outlook using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the Microsoft Office System, SQL Server 2005 Express, and Web Services. The guidance in this paper originated from Microsoft's Project Elixir, an internal Microsoft IT initiative to integrate critical customer data from Siebel into Microsoft Outlook for use by the Microsoft enterprise field sales force.
