Hello,

I am trying to create a new public folder in Outlook (with Exchange 5.5) I can create new folders in some public folders but not in others?

Can anyone help me?

I am the administrator but know little about Exchange.

When I say can't create a public folder I mean the option is shown but greyed out so I can't click on it.

Thanks

Simon

Doh!! Don't you hate it when that happens, I just wrote this question then immediately find the answer.

I had to set the Client Permissions on the general tab of the Public Folder I wanted to add to.

All works fine now.

I didn't close the question as I use old questions to find answers to my current problems, and I thought if someone else has this problem and they search for the answer like I do then this question might help them.

I am sorry if I have wasted your time by you reading this question.

Regards

Simon
