Category Colors in multiple calendars

[TLC]

We share a staff calendar in in public folders along with maintaining our own
personal Outlook calendar. It seems that when someone changes the category
colors in their personal calendars, those colors also change in the public
folder calendar.

Can this be avoided? Have I just not looked in the correct places for a
solution?

We would like to have a set of categories and colors for the public folder
but also allow each person to set these for their individual calendars.

It works the way you hope it would here and always has. Tell us some
basics:

version of Outlook
permission levels
any Calendar add-ins you are running

Here are some tips about how to post questions:

The colors belong to a user's categories, not to a specific folder. If user
A has set the color for category X to green then he sees every item
categorized as X in green, and user B might see the same category in red.
