Special holiday schedule for the Outlook calendar.

Guest

I want to post birthdays and anniverseries the same as holidays on my Outlook
calendar and share the data with other members of my family that use Outlook.
What program, etc does one use to make a special holiday calendar for
Outlook?

Birthdays and anniversaries are automatically added to the calendar when you
input this information on the related contact item for the person whose
b-day/anni you want to display.

If you just want a secondary calendar to show these items only (not a good
idea as reminders will not fire from the non-default calendar without an
add-in) you can drag them to a new calendar, export that calendar to a .pst
file and give it to your other family members to open, NOT IMPORT, in their
Outlook program. Then drag and drop them from your calendar .pst to their
default calendar.

Is there any way to keep outlook from "automatically" adding birthdays or
anniversaries to the calendar? Unfortunately, they are taking over my
calendar (20 - 30 birthdays show up each day.)

Thanks,

Barry

No, once you enter them in the Contact's details, they hit your calendar
automatically.
