I have been trying to find a way to share calendar
information with others in my small company. We have no
intranet, so I thought I could save my calendar as a web
page (did that) and then just e-mail the .html file to my
associates for viewing in a standard browser. The file
will not open once it has been e-mailed (although I can
open the saved file on my own PC). Can anyone help? Thank
you.
 
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.
