I would like to post an appointment on someone other then my own or even my
own calendar, I would like to make the appointment such that it can not be
changed without me changing the appointment, is this possible.

you can do it with folder permissions on your calendar. doing it on other
peoples calendars is harder because they will have full rights to all items
on their calendar.

I need to do the same thing on another user's calendar, my appointment
neither changed nor deleted. Harder is ok as long as it is possible. Can you
explain how to do this? We are using Wndows XP, Outlook 2007 and Exchange
2003.
Thanks

Do you want to remove a user's rights to edit their own calendar or remove
your rights from their calendar (or their rights from your calendar) ? Are
you the exchange admin and wish to do it from the server or can you do it
from the mailbox in outlook?

I am an admin and could do it from the server if required but I would prefer
to show the users how to do it since it will apply to several Calendars. This
is a City Gov environment and the Calendars belong to the Mayor and Council
members. I do not need to specifically remove their right to modify their own
items in their own Calendar, just to block them from deleting any "others"
appointments that may get posted. I just need to prevent these meeting items
from being deleted.
Thanks for your help.

In Outlook 2007 - right click on the calendar folder and choose Properties,
Permissions tab. Select the acct at the top (should say owner level
permissions) and remove the check mark from Edit all and check the box to
Edit own, else when they try to edit events they created they may end up
with duplicates.

Tried that. The top level is Default / None, followed by Anonymous / None. I
can't find a way to modify Owner.

I see your screenshot. If I look at permissions on a pst calendar I can see
the owner just as in your screenshot. But if I look at an Exchange calendar's
permissions, either mine or at others using my Outlook, all I see is Default,
Anonymous and me. Is this an Exchange behavior and is there a workaround?

Diane Poremsky {MVP}

Something is not right with the permissions - you should see what I had in
the screenshot. The exchange calendar is in a mailbox, not a public folder,
correct? What permissions does "me" have?

Correct to the mailbox question. "Me" - Sharon - has whatever permissions I
have assisned myself when I configured myself on the other user's Calendar.
Normally that is Publishing Editor.

So you are looking at the other calendar while logged into your acct? You
can't change the mailbox owners permission unless you are logged into their
account (or they need to make the change for you).

Understood. So I physically went to several other desktops and I see the same
behavior as on mine: the owner of the calendar never appears in the
Permissions tab list. I am perplexed.
