eMail Calendar?

[Jack Barrett]

How would I email a calendar to someone?
Can this be done?

Thanks,

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.

Hi. Thanks for the info. I am trying to figure out how to do this as well. I downloaded the Word Template and I can create a calendar in Word, but how do I push the Outlook calendar info into the Word document?

Thanks!

Hey Sue,

How does one "PUSH" the calendar data into the Word Template?

Thanks Again,

Not sure which of the templates you tried, but I use My Outlook Calendar,
and when you open a new Word doc based on that template, a wizard starts and
asks which Outlook calendar folder you want to get the data from, as well as
what other options you want. I suspect the other templates would do the
same thing.
