I would be grateful for any feedback from anyone who is using any of the
calendar sharing applications out there such as OfficeCalendar.  This looks
OK, but I know there are others and want to get the one that works best.
Very small XPPRO peer-to-peer network.  All users need to be able to make
appointments in two shared corporate calendars.
TIA,
Bill

Thanks for your response, Brian.  I have been there already and see several
likely candidates.  I posted here hoping to get a response from someone with
real-world experience in some of these applications.  Cheers, Bill.

Thanks, Oliver.
At last, someone with an opinion :-) I will check it out. I had looked at
GroupOutlook, MAPILab and Workgroupshare all of which will do what I want in
principal but had seen reports of slow syncing and other issues which made
me a bit diffident.
Cheers,
Bill

You DO realize it is his own software so the opinion can be nothing except
favorable?  <eg>

Er, no.  This is, as they say, news to me.  So much for getting useful
feedback from real-world users here :-(

Hi Milly,

the Link that I posted was a website of ZDNet UK with a lot of comands of
users.

It was NOT my opinion that I posted. All reviews on ZDNet UK about our
program are opinions of customers and not my opinion and the review/article
was written by an editor of ZDNet. No sentence on this ZDNet UK site is our
opinion.

If I would write my opinion, everybody will know that it is our product. ;-)

Hi Oliver,
You are quite correct - the ZDNet site has good feedback for your product. I
still looks to me that in the absence of users' comments in this newsgroup I
will just have to install and test the most likely candidates and see which
one I like the best.
Thanks for your post.
Cheers,
Bill

It wasn't meant as a knock against you - you have been very helpful here for
many years and your assistance is appreciated.

It was more of a "full disclosure" post than any opinion for or against your
application.  I have had no occasion to use it or any other since I am
running Exchange and have all the functionality I require via the server.
It was an informational post - sorry if the evil grin seemed out of place or
gave the wrong impression.
