WebDAV vs. Exchange 2003 Calendar SDK
I'm trying to figure out how to access an Exchange 2003 calendar from a remotely hosted ASP.NET/C# page (I only need to read and display calendar appointments / appointments, etc.). As far as I understand, I basically have two options: using WebDAV or Exchange SDK.
I've found some good examples of using WebDAV, although I haven't gotten it to work properly yet. I haven't looked too much into the SDK yet, and before I spend time on this, I'm wondering if anyone has any pros and cons with two different methods and any suggestions I should go for?
Helpful SDK links would be greatly appreciated as well!

As you say, there are several ways to do this, but webdav is the best choice as it is supported by MS from managed code, where CDOs tend to have more gray shades of support depending on what you do. If you are new to webdav it might be an idea to take a look at some of the wrapper classes as this might speed up your debut. I used the third party http://www.independentsoft.de/webdavex/index.html their support is highlighted quickly!
MSDN documentation is probably the starting point http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa143161(EXCHG.65).aspx
here are the others I ordered marked before the show examples
