Using views for shared calendars

G

Guest

I have a shared calendar that I own, It is located on a public folder.
I have created views for it, and for my side it works perfectly.
But other users of that calendar do not get the views I have generated. How
can I make that happen ?

Views are local to your machine. Each person has his or her own view of a
folder.

Are you an owner of that folder? If not, then you can't create views on it that other people can use.

I have created the calendar folder, and I am owner of it. I am set with all
permissions to it.
I am owner of the parent folder as well (all permissions).

I have created the views to be used by everyone.

did you create the views as 'for this folder, visible by anyone'?

I'm batting zero on some things, it appears.

When creating a view with Outlook 2003 on a shared calendar, I see that it
asks the question :
View for this calendar only
View for everyone on this calendar
View for all calendars

My assumption was that the second option means views can be shared by
multiple users.
Wasn't that your understanding ?

Like I said, I was batting zero. Diane had the correct answer.
