Shared Calendar

[seekinghelp]

Hi!
Would you kindly help me with the below 3 questions?

1 - I have owner access to my boss's calendar and was wondering if there is
any way I can receive notifications when he changes / deletes / edits any
appointments.

2 - Another question please, also pertaining to shared calendar. I can view
my boss calendar on web exchange server yet I cannot add / edit / delete any
items although I have full permission to do it on outlook. Is there any way
to do so?

3 - Accessing shared calendars via outlook (or adding / editing any items)
takes tremendous time. It sometimes fails. Is there anything we can do to
have a faster process?

PS: we both use Outlook 2003
Thanks much for your help!

1) Nope. Only if you are invited for the appointment as well and he sends an
update to the members of the meeting. Then you'll receive that in your own
Inbox/Calendar

2) That would depend on the method in which you access the mailbox and which
version of Exchange you are using. You might want to ask this in the
newsgroup for OWA instead; exchange.clients

3) How are you doing things now then and in which way does it fail? Opening
and saving it only takes a matter of seconds. How long editing takes,
completely depends how much you are editing and how much you are typing ;-)

1) Thanks
2) Thanks, will do so
3) Actually saving edits is what takes time (no matter of what is it that I
type)... it fails when connection is slow. I was told that running
"outlook/cleanfreebusy" and then running "outlook/cleanreminders" for all
profiles which are shared with my account helps. But then I am afraid this
would delete old entries on my boss calendar / contacts. Any idea if this
happens? also, will I have to do this from his PC?

Thanks again for your help Roady, much appreciated!

Concerning point # 2, I tried to find out how to ask this in the newsgroup
for OWA instead; exchange.clients, but failed since I'm new to this ... Can
you please tell me how to do so? Thanks Again!!
