We are trying to setup a shared calendar, but are having some odd
problems. (I've set these up many times before without trouble, but
this setup is different this time).
User A has Outlook XP (2002) and this is the calendar we are trying to
share out (via Microsoft Exchange Server).
I have given Editor access to User B and User C.
Both User B and C work on machines that have Outlook 2000 installed.
Here is what is happening:
1. If User A adds a new appointment (to the XP version), it shows up
instantly on User B's machine (2K version). However, if User B adds a
new appointment to the shared calender, it DOES NOT show up on User
A's machine.
2. If User B and User C (both Outlook 2000) add an appointment, both
can see the others additions.
3. If User A logs onto one of the Outlook 2000 machines, both Users B
and C can see the changes (and vice-versa)
4. BUT if User B (or C) logs onto the Outlook XP machine (as
themselves -- not as the original owner of the calendar) AND they are
logged on as themselves on an Outlook 2000 machine, THE UPDATES CAN BE
SEEN ON BOTH VERSIONS! This is not in the shared calendar, though,
this is in the person's own calendar for their mailbox.
Another thing about the setup:
The Office XP calendar contains some new fields that were not present
in Outlook 2000. In the particular calendar that we are trying to
share out, one such field, label, is being actively used. This field
does not exist in Outlook 2000. I don't know if this could be part of
the reason we are having these problems.
Has anyone see this problem before?
I'd be open to any suggestions for troubleshooting further where the
specific problem lies. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening,
or how to fix it?
Thank you so much for taking the time to help with this!!!
