meeting scheduling

[Guest]

For organizations that use Exchange Server
To be used effectively, the free/busy status information for each user must
be stored where Outlook 2003 can access it to update users' schedules.
Exchange Server automatically stores free/busy information for each user and
requires no setup on your part to use Outlook 2003 to schedule group events
and meetings. If your organization uses Exchange Server, you don't need to
configure free/busy status settings. You are already set up to manage group
schedules.

I have exchange and the default above is not working? Help---please.

Have your users set the permission on their calendars to at least "Standard =
Read" ?
What happens when u try to open/view another users calendar?

 

[Guest]

Yes, I actually share calendars with others. But the same people do not show
up on the meeting free/busy times?

So if You start a Meeting request and put in the recipients in the list, just
grayed/black slashed fields are shown in the f/b fields behind them? And if
so, do they really have any appointments in their calendars?

 

[Guest]

Yes, they do have appointments. One of the people is the GM of our company
and I have rights to look at his calendar. So I know the calendars are loaded.
