I understand your frustration, but asking rhetorical questions doesn't =
get you any closer to getting the job done, does it? Microsoft is aware =
that sending a calendar isn't an easy task. Why don't you try one or =
more of the solutions available?=20

The closest Outlook can come to a built-in method for sending a =

calendar as a single file attachment is to export the Calendar folder to =
a file, then sending the exported file. That, of course, won't produce =
the kind of document you're looking for.=20

However, if you have Word, you can use one of the Word templates =

listed at http://www.slipstick.com/addins/calendar.htm#print to push the =
Outlook data into a Word document, then attach that document to a =
message.=20

If you have Visio 2003, you can use the Import Outlook Data Wizard to =

create a calendar from Outlook data, using a filter to include only =
certain appointments. The resulting .vsd file can then be sent as an =
attachment.

For a VBA code solution that creates an HTML-format mail message =

containing any single day's appointment list, see =

Printing to a PDF printer driver would work, if you have something =

like that installed.=20

Another technique is to use a third-part tool called ClipForm =

(http://www.ivitar.com/clipform/). This tool uses templates to export =
Outlook data -- a whole folder or selected items -- to the Windows =
clipboard, text file, HTML email message, or other file types.

This shouldn't be this frustrating. I just want to save one =

calendar month=20
as a file that I can email to others. How is this done? I don't =

save it as a web page. I just want a file that shows the same =

thing I see=20
when I print a one-month page.
