Sharing AND synchronizing the same Outlook Calendar

[Trevor]

Hello,

Situation:

Secretary has access to salemans shared Calendar. She creates all his
appointments and then he can see them entered on his computer in his
office. The salesman wants her to book his appointments on her
computer and be able to sinc these appoinments onto his PDA from his
computer.

Problem:

PDA synchronizes to a local calendar and NOT the shared calendar.


Can we somehow make his pda syn to the shared calendar?

We use Exchange 2003.


Is this just a pipe dream or can this be done? Sure seems like a
typical requirement and feature built-in.


Any Help most appreciated,

Regards,

Trev

Get rid of the "local" calendar. I presume that's in a PST file. You don't need it if you're using Exchange.

Hi Trev,

to synchronize a PDA with a Public Calendar you will need in addition to
ActiveSync or HotSync an additional tool that supports also Public Exchange
Folder.

For a list of 3rd party tools have a look on this site:
