Share second calendar?

G

Guest

Does anyone know if it is possible to share a second calendar that is
associated with a users mailbox with Exchange 2003? The properties for the
second calendar allow you to add permissions just like the normal calendar,
however users trying to open the shared calendar either only see the main
calendar (which is also shared) or do not find any shared calendar for the
user (if they only have rights to view the second calendar and not the first).

I know public folders will do what I need to accomplish, but a user wants to
share his second calendar with one other person. His main calendar is already
shared with someone else having rights to it. All are using Outlook 2003.

Thanks

To allow access to a shared folder that isn't one of the folders listed on
the File | Open | Other User's Folder dialog, the Exchange mailbox owner
needs to grant "folder visible" permission to the root of the mailbox and
any other parent folders of the shared folder, as well as appropriate
permission -- at least Reviewer -- on the shared folder itself.

The user who needs access then goes into Tools | E-mail Accounts or Tools |
Services (depending on the Outlook version), brings up the properties for
the Exchange Server service, and on the Advanced tab, adds the mailbox.

For more information on folder permissions, with how-to screen shots, see
