I have a lady at my work that schedules appointments on her calender on Outlook 98. Either the appointments are for busy, or for out of the office. When someone else pulls up the appointments, and checks attendee availability the women out of the office shows up as available??? The appointments in the originals womens calender show up as busy in blue, and out of the office in purple. It worked in the past without having to supply permission to anyone else? Please help me with this....

Have you tried running Outlook with the /cleanfreebusy option? (just add that switch to the end of the shortcut command line.)

What is your delivery set to?

(Tools, services, delivery tab)

If it is set to the mailbox, you shouldn't have any problems, but if you are going to a .pst file (like we do) it will post (by default) a max of 3 days (I think) of free / busy data for the calendar.

Hope this helps!

Look under Tools.. Options.. Preferences.. Calendar Options.. Free/Busy Options and verify that an appropriate amount of info is being posted to the server.

Good fortune,
Don
