MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / September 2005Rename Calendar
Can Outlook 2003 be "tweaked" to not use the default calendar if a meeting request is accepted? When sharing calendars it gets confusing if all calendars are called "Calendar" I’d like to have the calendar renamed to "John’s calendar" but Outlook must then not recreate a calendar named "Calendar", and it must then paste the meeting if accepted to this "John’s calendar" Is this because you make appointments for someone else and you don't want them in your own mail calendar? If so, do you need to tally the return acceptances/declines on the appointment? or does that matter?

I have 6 calendars to check, all by the name "Calendar" . Some or other time this will become a problem, I will get it all in the wrong calendar. > Is this because you make appointments for someone else and you don't > want them in your own mail calendar?

Select RENAME CALENDAR Give it a different name like "Joe's Calendar". Once you have renamed the Calendar, you need to make Joes appointments from that calendar (Not from your main system calendar). However, any return acceptances/declines will not be tallied on the tracking tab. Nikki > Hi Nikki, > Yes in part what your saying is the reason.

My problem is just that last part you mentioned. If renamed it can not handle the "ceptances/declines" automaticly :-( Paul > You can rename the calendars: > Right click the Calendar folder that you created.

When you open them as additional mailboxes in your profile, you'll see only Calendar. You can have the calendar in both My Calendar list and the other calendar list and as long as you select it from the other calendar list, you'll see the users name at the top.

We have multiple individual's calendars showing (using "choose folders") and all say "calendar". Is there a way that we can re-name, or at least change what we see? Thanks > This is the only way that will work. > [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > > >> > the > > >> > meeting if accepted to this "John's calendar" How are the mailboxes set up? With individual names or a generic profile? Reason I ask is that all of my calendars for other users show the name in the calendar window when opened.
