I am not aware of any third-party applications that simplify creating a custom Outlook form.

After a custom form is created, would it be possible to make it to where whenever a new appointment is added to the calendar, the new appointment defaulted to the custom form for everyone who had access to that calendar?

I have a manager asking for us to created a shared or public calendar for our IT department to use to schedule travel time. The manager would like for the ability to select from predefined fields in a drop down list when creating the appointment that are standardized to everyone who has access to the calendar.<br />
<br />
A sharepoint site is out of the question; the manager wants to be able to add the Calendar to Outlook. I have researched this issue and have not found a definitive solution. Is there a third party application that would allow me to do this?
