Hello James,

you have to rigth click on the agenda in Outlook 2003 and choose the "share"
option in the menu that appears.
Then you have to add people who must be able to add/remove things in you're
agenda.
There are a couple of options for rigths that those people get on you're
sared agenda, like publishers, authors etc.

Only the Europeans have agendas - the rest of us have calendars. :) Right
click on the calendar and choose properties. Go to permissions tab and click
Add to select the person you want to share with.

I did find a way to give permission but I had to go to
tools/options/delegate. I'm not sure where I would right click on calendar
to get properties and find the permissions tab. When in outlook if I right
click on calendar I get Open New Window or Navigation Pane options.

you need to click that button to open the calendar module then right click
on the calendar in the list at the top of the screen.

Do you use exchange server? (It's an exchange feature) if so, make sure
exchange extensions are enabled - tools, trust center, addins if using
Outlook 2007. Toosl, options, other in older versions.

It is possible:

You can publish your default Office Outlook 2007 Calendar to Office Online
and control who can access your calendar on Office Online. Calendars
published to Office Online are searchable, which helps other Office Online
users find calendars of interest. Publishing an Internet Calendar requires
neither the publisher nor the user to use an Exchange account. For more
information, see Share your calendar on Office Online.

Tip If you have access to a Web server that supports the World Wide Web
Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol, you can choose to
publish calendars to that server instead. However, publishing to Office
Online provides improved control over who can access your calendar. For more
information, see Share your calendar on a Web server.

You can publish and share the calendar but other people can not add items to

I am using Outlook 2007 (with Business Contact Manager) via an exchange
server. I have checked the exchange extensions in .../addins and the ones
there are all enabled. However, I am still not having any luck with adding
sharing permissions for my Calender. Any tips?

Okay so i work at a company that wants to have a calendar shared between all
of us (like a general calendar where everyone’s info is there)

So i looked up how to do so. I created a calendar and named it. Then
"published calendar to internet and office online" following prompts i
created a Windows Live ID (as so did all my coworkers)

Then after i created it i only wanted certain people to view the calendar so
i made it private and invited co-workers to subscribe to the calendar. Which
it worked i went to their computers and activated it. Now they have my
calendar.

But here’s my problem... i've added details to calendar, (as in new dates
and diff people schedules) and they’re not seeing the update on their
calendars, nor can they add to the calendar what their times.
How do I fix this problem? Its very important to find a calendar that can do
this…
Please can someone help me? If its help to anyone I am using Microsoft
Office 2007!

They can't update your calendar on office online. It should download updates
approx hourly though.

Have you looked at any of the solutions or applications on this page:
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/share.asp
You really need a more robust solution than office online.

I'm also trying to do the same thing. I can right click the calender, point

I can't make someone a contributor.

Unless you use Exchange server, there is no easy way to give others editor

Unless your company or provider offer Exchange mailboxes, you can't just use
it.

I'm with you on this one. I am running Outlook 2007 not on an exchange
server. I can right click on the calendar icon. I then select Publish to
Internet and Change Sharing Permissions. There is my wife's email address.
But it won't let me add new addresses. OK. Should be easy. Simply select
Publish to Internet and Share Published Calendar. Outlook creates an email
which, in theory, I can send to anyone I want. When they click on the link in
the email, they are taken to my published calendar. But wait!! It only allows
me to send it to my wife's email. Any other email address returns an error
message. I need to read the fine print: "This calendar is shared with
restricted permissions. To preview or subscribe to this calendar, you need to
enroll the e-mail address to which this e-mail message was sent with a
Windows Live IDâ„¢ account." OK. How can I enroll someone else's email address?
Not in Permissions. It will only let me delete the email address that is
there, not add a new one. Sheesh!!

Nikki -
I have two users who collaborate on one of their calendars. User 1 has
Office Pro Plus 2007 loaded and has given User 2 (who has Office 2003)
Publishing Editor privileges. However, when User 2 goes to delete an item,
they get an error message that the item has been moved or they do not have
access.

Is this a compatibility issue between 2007 and 2003, or am I missing a
setting?

Also, User 2 cannot add an item to the calendar while User 1 has it open.
This is not productive. Please let me know if I need to change any settings
to allow better access.

Thanks,

Rebecca

But what about my situation where we use Exchange 2003 and my user is
running Outlook 2007. The person he has given Publishing Author privileges
to is using Outlook 2003. When they both have the calendar open, user 2
cannot add items. the owner must exit Outlook in order for user 2 to add.
What settings could I change to fix this?

Hi - I have spent alot of time browsing instructions from MS and posts on
this question. Simply put I have yet to find a way for someone else to
add/edit a shared calendar if one does NOT have Exchange and has Outlook
2007. This is frustrating as I need to add/edit my own Calendar across 3
email profiles and thought this was the way to do it. Thought? Thanx...

You are sharing it with office online? not possible to edit it with other
accounts. If you use windows xp and use the same acct logon for each
computer, the method at
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/publishcal.htm should work.

Once you have a calender published to the web how do you give a person access
to add appt. to your calender?
My office uses outlook a lot, we just recently started using 07 and can not
figure out how to set it up to be able to add appt. to other calenders.

How do you give someone permission to "add" to your calender once you have
published it? This is for Microsoft Office 2007.

You can't. that's the one HUGE failing of this Outlook function....
However there may be other possibilities. Where is the person that you want
to be able to add to this calendar physically located compared to you?

Presumably then you are not using Exchange Server?
Is this person in the next office on the same network as yourself?
If so then have a look at this:

Then basically you're out of luck. All you can do is to get your colleague
to publish THEIR calendar as well, and you both subscribe to each other's
read-only calendar.

Calendars published to the Internet are read-only.

How can multiple users change the online calendar?

It's not possible at this time - the calendar service is read-only for all
except the owner.

Hi Diane,

Chico here, I just want to clarify - Outlook Calendar 2007 - We have placed
a shared calendar online and would like 6 people to access and make changes
on it. If we do not have exchange and I do not have a permission screen - we
are unable to do this?

What am I looking for when I look for the computer with the permissions? I
created the calendar in my 2007 calendar and published it - did I do
something wrong and need to start again??

Thanks,
Chico

You didn't do anything wrong - the published calendars are read only. Do you
have your own web server or do you have to use office online? If you have
your own server, where you can install software, you could use an asp-based
service that allows people to create appointment requests or even one that
allows them to create eventso n the calendar and syncs back to outlook. I
don't know what exists in this area or if you'd need to have a web developer
write it for you.

For Outlook 2007: Go to the File dropdown menu, choose Folder, then
'Properties for Calendar', then Permissions tab. There you can add users and
give them whatever privileges you require (Reviewer, Contributor, etc.)

I knew how to do this in 2003 but I can't figure out how to do it in 2007. I
need my people to be able to schedule appointments on my calendar and to be
able to change their own appointments if they need to do so. Thanks for any
help!
