MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / November 2005free busy not published
Hi, I've been using Free Busy on my previous computer but I am not able to use it on my new computer. I am running Office 2002 with windows XP pro. I have noticed that the password was not kept in outlook's ftp function (used in previous intalation) so I entered it in the free busy field in the form of ftp://User:Password@ftp.domain.com/Users folder/Freebusy/My name.vfb I have imported all my Outlook emails from my previous computer. I have searched the web thoroughly and have done the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE" /cleanfreebusy with no results. I have checked the URL thousand of times copy/paste in a browser works great with edit capabilities. Life could be much worse but my productivity has gone down dramatically! Your help is very much appreciated :-) . Cheers Henri Were you using Outlook 2002 on the old computer? free/busy is a PITA to get working on 2002. Is the vfb file getting saved to the new location?

Yes I was using Outlook 2002 and no, :-( the vfb file is not curently created on my server... I'm not sure I understand the meaning of PITA but I guess it's something like "Pain in the A..."? Does that mean you are recomending an upgrade? Thanks again Henri > Were you using Outlook 2002 on the old computer? free/busy is a PITA to get > working on 2002.

We'll see where that goes. I don't need an upgrade, I guess I am going to have to downgrade to Outlook 2000!

Microsoft sent me again on the page http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=291621 Even thought it does not give any garantee, I installed the feature called Web Publishing Wizard 1.6 linked : http://download.microsoft.com/msdownload/webpubwiz/1.52/x86/en/wpie415-x86.exe I then rebooted my computer and it works! Hope it helps others with the same problem. Special thanks to Diane. Henri > I opened a ticket with Microsoft...

Describe "everything". Obviously you haven't done "everything", so stating what you have done and what error messages you get (exact text) will help someone else come up with a solution for your problem. Be sure to include whether your Outlook is in C/W mode or IMO mode. Help>About will tell you. SignatureBrian Tillman I am also using two time zones in outlook... could that interfer? People having this problem please let me know if you are using several time zones! Thanks Henri > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > Henri |
