Hi, we just purchased Office 2003 and discovered that it doesn't use the
NetFolders feature (Outlook 2000). Netfolders allows you to share an Outlook
calendar w/ your partner(s) using special email msgs. It's a clumsy way of
sharing data, but it works.

Is there any program that allows 2 people to share their calendars (and
contacts) w/out having to use Exchange? I've read about 4Team and
OfficeCalendar, but am nervous they might suck. Any experience with any of
these (or others)? I really like the new Outlook and other programs, and
don't want to switch back (it took long enough getting everything set up)

Thanks, Milly. That is where I found 4Team and OfficeCalendar. I was just
wondering if anyone out there, who has used one of these syncing programs,
could give a short thumbs up-thumbs down review.

Thanks. HM
