export calendar that can be shared

[Tony Vraa]

How do I make a copy of my calendar that I see with print
preview, so that it can be sent via e-mail to others
without outlook?

I have tried print screen and inserting that image in a
power point slide, but that was very time consuming and
reswults in large files. Got to be an easier way.

I also have saved it as a web page, but the web page does
not end up looking like the print preview page (only shows
1st event of the day and seems to cut off lines.

You would think that there would be a way to export the
file to a microsoft word of publisher document, but I have
not broken the code yet.

Outlook does not have any built-in way to send a calendar as a single file attachment (unless you count exporting the Calendar folder to a file, then sending the exported file). 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.

For a VBA code solution that creates an HTML-format mail message containing any single day's appointment list, see http://www.slipstick.com/dev/finddate.htm#today .

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.
