I was originally mistaken in what you said Michael but checking further some
individuals do have access to the default calender of the person that is
administering the calender. I had the administrator share out their default
calendar to one of the people that could not see the color categories but no
change. I even tried Diane's suggestion after the default calendar was
shared out with no change. This is a real head scratcher.
