Incidently, I forgot to say that the reason I want to do this is that I run a
desktop calender proggy called Rainlender, which "reads" the calenders and
displays the appts in a nice fashion on the desktop (without needing to open
Outlook). She never opens Outlook - the whole excercise is geared to the
Rainlender install on her account being able to read my calender and thus
displaying important dates/appointments on her desktop...
