I want to email my Calendar from Outlook to another person outside the
company so they can view it - how is this done. I am not able to "forward"
it (greyed out) so please can anyone help?

The closest Outlook can come to a built-in method for sending a calendar as
a single file attachment is to export the Calendar folder to a file, then
sending the exported file.

However, if you have Word, you can use one of the Word templates listed at
http://www.slipstick.com/addins/calendar.htm#print to push the Outlook data
into a Word document, then attach that document to a message.

If you have Visio 2003, you can use the Import Outlook Data Wizard to create
a calendar from Outlook data, using a filter to include only certain
appointments. The resulting .vsd file can then be sent as an attachment.

For a VBA code solution that creates an HTML-format mail message containing
any single day's appointment list, see
http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=24 .

Another technique is to use a third-part tool called ClipForm
(http://www.ivitar.com/clipform/). This tool uses templates to export
Outlook data -- a whole folder or selected items -- to the Windows
clipboard, text file, HTML email message, or other file types.

Create a new PST and copy your Calendar folder to it. Close the new PST and
then close Outlook. Rename the new PST to something.PSX. Now restart
Outlook and mail the PSX file as an attachment. When the other person
receives it, s/he can save it, rename it back to PST and open it with
File>Open>Outlook Data File.
