I am switching to using Outlook 2003 with 2003 Exchange Server for my
office's calendar/appointment system. We already use Outlook for email.

I want to know if there is any way to globally create the Label and Category
lists for all users and apply the same Automatic Formatting filters as well.

The old system that we used had color codes for appointments and I want to
make the tranistion easier for my users.

Also, why does the Lable Color not apply to all meeting attendees? It only
appears to diplay properly for the meeting intiator and the Conference Room

Labels: See http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=823 for sample VBScript code.

Master category list: It's in the registry. See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/olcat.htm

Automatic formatting rules: Not possible to propagate automatically.

Because Outlook does not transmit color labels on meeting requests. Resources are booked directly, not with meeting requests, so they do get a label.
