After posting an Outlook calendar to the web. I would like users to be able
to click on a date and save that information on their personal computer in
Outlook. This is for school events.
 
Outlook 2007 is the first version to provide anything close to this functionality.

If you look at the links that import the actual items, they're all individual .ics files, e.g. http://www.troop47plymouth.net/webcal/041022904355337428435581970846.ics.You can create those in Outlook with the File | Save As command.

This is the tool they used to publish the calendar -- http://www.contactplus.com/products/webcal/webcalendar.htm

Hi guys.

I would like to publishing the Outlook calendar on the Intranet central
page. I have no ideia how can development this. Could you please advice some
documentation or same easy ideias how to make this work?

Thank you
 
When I run the script even after changed. I recieve following message:
Could not access webpub - Shuting Down.
I have change Target, etc..

I believe that I need is access just a central calendar on the web, Is it
possible?

Cheers
 
What script are you referring to? That page lists more than a dozen different solutions.

Outlook has no built-in feature to create a central calendar of everyone's appointments. That's something you need a third-party solution to accomplish.

I am referring to: http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/webcalpub.htm
How generally have the user used this option if they have calendar into
Outlook folder. Why they decide to see calendar via Web? I gues just if you
don't have outlook installed.
How is the best way for the user call the calendar? will be just type the
url with user calendar?
I have just being asked for this funcionality but I can see any good
advantage.

cheers
 
Are you using Outlook 2000? That script works only in that version, as the article says quite explicitly. For other versions, you need to use one of the other solutions listed on the page I originally suggested.

Hi Sue.
My Outlook version is 2002 SP3. Well, doesnt outlook have this feature?
I would like to see all users calendar from web interface. The only option
is buy an applications? Which one are you advice?

Tank you very much.

As I said, only Outlook 2000 supports scripting of the Publish as Web Calendar feature.

Not knowing all the features of all the products and not knowing what your specific requirements and budget are, nor whether you're able to work with the code samples on the page I suggested, I'm not in a position to recommend any particular solution.

This may be a little "off thread" but it the closest conversation I have
seen. I am on the other end of thi issue. My son's school publishes a
calendar of his assignments and there is a web link to downlowd in vCal
format. When I do so on my machine (XP/ Outlook 07) I get an empty calendar
in my Outlook file. Weh I do so on my wife's machine, running Outlook 2003,
it thinks that the incoming calendar is baed on a lunar calendar. I have
asked teh school to check tech notes with Powerschool, their software
provider (since there is no end user support there) but thought I would check
in here since there seems to be a lot of expertise here.

Any insight apprecited.
