MORE INFORMATION
================

1. Start a new Standard EXE project. Form1 is added by default.

2. Add the following code to Form1's Click event procedure:

        Private Sub Form1_Click()
           Dim objSchdPlus As Object
           Dim objContact As Object

           Set objSchdPlus = CreateObject("SchedulePlus.Application")
           objSchdPlus.Logon
           Set objContact = objSchdPlus.ScheduleSelected.Contacts.New
           objContact.SetProperties FirstName:="Santa", _
              LastName:="Claus", PhoneBusiness:="(206)555-4321", _
              PhoneHome:="(206)555-6789"
           objSchdPlus.Logoff
           Set objContact = Nothing
           Set objSchdPlus = Nothing
         End Sub

3. Start Microsoft Schedule Plus.

4. Press the F5 key to run the program. Click the form, and then view your list
  of contacts in Schedule Plus to see the new entry.
