[AccessD] A2K: BIT OT - Shared Outlook Calendar

Darren,

I don't know what your objective is here, but we are currently evaluating a
product for sharing outlook contacts, calendars, and tasks between various
Outlook installations on a network. Take a look at
http://www.officecalendar.com/index.asp.  The literature looks good. We are
putting the eval copy on a couple of machines to try it out. For the price
it might beat the cost of development.  If nothing else the web site will
give you some insite into how these folks accomplished this task. They are
using .NET as the backbone to link up the outlook installations.

If you go the Access route I'd be interested in learning how you do it.

Doug

Subject: [AccessD] A2K: BIT OT - Shared Outlook Calendar


Hello all
I have some code working well that creates Outlook Calendar Items from
bookings in an Access dB

So Far so good, but the calendar items created by Machine A are only stored
on, and visible to, Machine A What I want is - for my app to create calendar
items that everyone can see

So I guess my Q is more Outlook related than Access.

How do I set up Outlook so that People see only a 'group' calendar?

So an appointment made using my app on Machine A can be seen by Every other
machine, not just Machine A?

Many thanks in advance

Darren
