Free/Busy Details

[Karstein]

Hi

System:
Exchange 2007/Outlook 2007

Problem:
Resource Mailboxes display different level of detail for the same user on
the same platform but on different computers. When user Test1 logs on
computer Comptest1 and display free/busy through either SchedulingAssistant
or GroupScheduler - he can se details like subject and booking owner. When
logging on to computer Comptest2 - he only sees the "blue line" (no details).
Both computers are running the same build of Outlook, but Comptest1 is Vista
and Comptest2 is WinXP.
I can hardly believe that this is related to the computer OS...., but rather
a bug in Outlook 2007.

We do not want to use direct booking as it will require to much configuring
(approx 1000 resources....)
When viewing free/busy information I want every meeting to display details
and not only the blue "busy line".

Any ideas anyone?

On the machine that doesn't show details (in Outlook) go to Tools | Options
| Calendar Options | Planner Options and make sure that "Show calendar
details in the grid" is checked.

Hi Ben

"Show calendar detail in grid" is checked. -But it doesn't work on resources.
All resources are created with default settings.
