I have three computers on a home network. Each is used by
one of my family members. We would like to create a
shared calendar to track our combined schedules.

Is there a way to do this without being on an Exchange
Server??

thanks for any help,

I took a look at the site below for tips on how to share a
calendar and contacts between my wife and me on the same
computer, however I could not figure out how to keep them
up to date using the Our.pst approach. We want to be able
to mainting separate email, contact and calendar entries
but be able to transfer information more easily than just
copying and importing vCard and vCalendar files.

Wouldn't we need to constantly be updating the shared
folder as much as we do now with copying and importing
vCard files? Is there an easier way to share our accounts
on the same computer without using Net Folders?

Yes, you would have to take action to keep the shared calendar folder updated. If you want to look at other sharing methods, see http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/share.htm, but NetFolders may be much easier than anything else (if you can get it to work consistently).
