Share appointments with outlook file

I have made a meetingroom reservation system and want the user to share the appointments with the other participants in MS Outlook.

1) Which file format can I use and which is the best? *.vcs, *.ica or *.xcal or another one?

2) Does anyone know where I can learn about how to make the Outlook file format structure, i.e. some examples, documentation etc.

I appreciate your help...

CSV is one of the easiest excel formats since its just a text file. For things like Outlook, you tend to need a 3rd party library since the native format is non-trivial to edit.
