Shared calendar, keeping custom views

[Guest]

I set up a (working) shared calendar in a public folder and created eight
separate custom views that use a filter based on categories of the
appointment. This is to be used for keeping track of all the various things
happening in our building on a daily basis but allow the users to only look
at certain types of events if they so choose. How can I push down these
custom views to each user so that I don't have to go to each one and manually
create them one at a time? I initially set them all up as "This Folder,
Visible to Everyone." I'm using OL2003 but the users are all on OL2000.

Users should have those views available automatically. To force users to see
a custom view when they open a public folder:

-- Create the custom view, choosing the "On this folder, visible to
everyone" option

-- On the Properties dialog for the folder, on the Administration tab,
select your view as the initial view on the folder.

-- Choose View | Current View | Define Views, and at the bottom of that
dialog, check the box for "Only show views created for this folder."
