open outlook links automatically

[xja]

I have been using the URL attribute to link UR items to Outlook items. I have created new template items based on "Document" for each type of Outlook item (eg, "Outlook Contact", "Outlook Task", etc.), containing a URL attribute. I then create a new item with the URL attribute set to the Outlook link (ie, "outlook:<guid>", using the Outlook linker utility I posted in the Tips section to capture the Outlook link. However, I have recently discovered that if I create a web info item (eg, by pasting a web URL onto a UR item), and then change the URL attribute to an Outlook link, when I click on the item in Data Explorer, the Outlook item AUTOMATICALLY opens!

So, question is: is there a way I can have items derived from my Outlook Contact template automatically open when selected? Is there something I can put in the "File extensions to display in internal browser" to cause that to happen? Or a way to define my Outlook Contact template?
