Appointments made on shared calendars take to long to show up.

I work with one other person at the front desk in an academic office where we
regularly schedule appointments for students to meet with the advisors in our
office. My co-worker and I use Outlook 2007 as a scheduling tool. The
advisors make their personal calendars available to us, we then make
appointments with students and place those appointments directly on the
advisor calendars.

It's a good system, but it breaks down due to a problem we're having with
Outlook. Normally, an appointment I make will show up on my co-workers
computer right away, but occasionally it takes a long time. We've seen cases
when the appointment made on one computer doesn't show up on the other for
hours, sometimes not even until the next day. This can lead to
double-bookings and a lot of unnecessary rescheduling.

Is there any way to fix this problem?
