I have to provide my boss with my weekly calendar, is there any way I can just e-mail her that one week calendar?
 
The closest Outlook can come to a built-in method for sending a calendar as
a single file attachment is to export the Calendar folder to a file, then
sending the exported file.

However, if you have Word, you can use one of the Word templates listed at
http://www.slipstick.com/addins/calendar.htm#print to push the Outlook data
into a Word document, then attach that document to a message.

If you have Visio 2003, you can use the Import Outlook Data Wizard to create
a calendar from Outlook data, using a filter to include only certain
appointments. The resulting .vsd file can then be sent as an attachment.

For a VBA code solution that creates an HTML-format mail message containing
any single day's appointment list, see
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/finddate.htm#today .

Another technique is to use a third-part tool called ClipForm
(http://www.ivitar.com/clipform/). This tool uses templates to export
Outlook data -- a whole folder or selected items -- to the Windows
clipboard, text file, HTML email message, or other file types.

"Slipstick" site has a great calendar printer that
is a Word template. Once it is created you can
just mail it.:

http://www.slipstick.com/addins/gallery/index.htm#myolcal
"My Outlook Calendar: Customizable Word template for generating
Outlook weekly and monthly calendars. Print any Outlook calendar
that you have access to, including calendars from other users'
mailboxes and Public Folders. Add color coding by category or by
type of item (one-day event, multiple-day event, etc.) Specify time
and date formats and the title for the calendar. Slower than the
Microsoft template, but it does much more and follows progress in
the status bar."

This is a template file. You can just open it by
double clicking it (this will open it up in Word).
If your Security is set too high in Word you may
have to lower it to run it.

Open Word
Select the TOOLS menu
Select MACRO
Select SECURITY...
Set to MEDIUM or LOW

Then open Outlook
Select your Calendar folder
Open the MY OUTLOOK CALENDAR template

If the macro still doesn't run immediately, look for
a button on your Word Toolbar called RESTART
Press it and wait a few seconds...
