Maximum number of open shared calendars in Outlook 2003?

[Training Goddess]

I have access to a number of meeting room calendars and would like to know:

a) What is the maximum number of calendars that I can list in my 'Other
Calendars' group
b) What is the maximum number of calendars that I can activate/check to
display side-by-side?

Thanks in advance!

How many have you tried and do you get a failure at some point?

for B - how big is your screen?

I've only tried a few, but felt it would be more productive to find out
directly from an expert.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

I have a very large screen - 1280 x 1024 is my resolution.

Thanks in advance. Cheers!

I believe you can activate as many as you want - but unless you have very
high res, you won't be able to see much of the content. 13 is typically the
most you can truly use on a large screen.

I don't know if there is a max you can have in the other calendars list -
it's really best to add the ones you need and see if you hit problems. I
know around 20 work (although its harder to find the one you want in a long
list), I believe someone said they had 50.

Thanks, Diane. I was hoping that there was a technical specification in
Microsoft's documentation that would be an absolute number of Other Calendar
items that could be listed as well as an absolute number of Shared Calendars
that could be physically displayed at maximum resolution. Do you know of such
numbers?

Thanks, again, for your feedback. It means a lot that you're taking the time
to respond.

There are no published numbers. We find out by trial and error and from
users who post here. AFAIK, no one has posted that they could only add xx
calendars, probably because they didn't need that many.
