Why do we IT people always throw up "Red Herrings" when we know what the real question is but we either don't know the answer or we prefer a different answer to the real one?
As of March 2011 Microsoft does not support CalDAV (necessary to support connection with Google Calendars directly) ...
And Google (Calendar Section) hasn't seen fit to write an APP that connects Outlook to Google Calendar using some other means ...
Hoorah for my industry :-(
