Outlook 2003 Public Folder Calendar View Issue
Situation--Can't see a public folder calendar via the
calendar view in Outlook 2003. Exchange 2003. When public folder is selected in the Open a Shared Calendar, we get the message 'The server mailbox cannot be opened because this address book entry is not a mail user.' Is OUtlook 2003 capable of opening a non-user mailbox in the calendar view? If so, how do I enable it? If not, does anyone have a workaround that would allow information to be 'synced' between a public folder and a 'CompanyCalendar' user so that appointments made on one will transfer to the other and be auto-accepted? No matter how creative I've been, I keep running into the limitation that Public Folders cannot be given rights. Thank You |

Outlook 2003 Public Folder Calendar View Issue
You need to open public folders through the Folder List. If you add them to
Public Folders\Favorites, they should appear on the My Calendars list. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Bret" wrote in message ...

Outlook 2003 Public Folder Calendar View Issue
Thank You, Sue. That worked.
Is this a widely known 'feature'?(What I'm really asking is, should I feel like an idiot for not knowing about this?)

Outlook 2003 Public Folder Calendar View Issue
Since the user interface in Outlook 2003 is still quite new, I don't think
you have any reason to feel ignorant. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "bret" wrote in message ...
