Why sometimes one can share with a group and other times not

[Randy Damewood]

This is probably by design but I wanted to make sure that I have everything correct and have not checked something that needed to be checked.


(there seems to be a lot of questions about groups)

Ok - Why, when I share a Spreadsheet or doc, my groups will show up in the autopopulate screen and I can share with them. But in calendars they do not auto populate. We are not quite live yet so I can not test it, but if I put the group email address in a calendar share will it share with everyone in the group?

It seems like there is one or two more places that I have seen that behavior?

What gives -

Thanks so much.

That is how groups work and by design (however many feel it should be changed).   If you share any google product, (document, calendar, folder, site) with an individual it will automatically show up in the recipient's google apps.  If you share with a group it will not show up until the recipient clicks a link to the resource.
