Does anyone know whether there is any other option to hide my notations in
different events from showing in group calendars and meeting request, than
utilizing the private-option in every new event added?
The option in calendar settings affects only whether I shall see mine and
others on MY own computer. I'm looking for the option that enables me to show
only the different colours from my calendar in all the other pc's - without
having to show them "Private event" on every occation.
Appreciate every effort. Thanks!

What permissions are set on your Calendar folder?

To put it bluntly - none. Nobody has no permissions what so ever. What I'm
looking for is another way to hide my calendar notes to show in the meeting
request situation (free/Busy and colours only), as well as in the group
calendar. I could put it this way; if >tools - options - calendar options -
planner options< affected the way OTHERS se MY calendar instead of vice
versa, I could call in mission accomplished - but now I can't!
Suggestions?
Sorry! Forgot last time - Outlook 2003, Exchange server.

Have you checked with the Exchange administrator to see what permission are set at the mailbox level?

No - I have not. Still, I'm looking for an "local option" if there is any.
This is (the way I see it) not a mailbox issue. It's a question of giving me
the possibility to master to what extent i'm willing to share my calendar in
the cases mentioned before.This without having to use the "private check-box"
for every new notation. Again; IF the planner options - under tools - worked
the other way around (what I show, instead of what I see) I would be happy.
That is my question - does the posibility excist? Don't think so - actually!
Regards!

The symptoms suggest, though, that the permissions may be set too loosely at the mailbox level. That is something that you as a user cannot check for yourself.

OK!
I think I understand what you are saying - but in that case we will "close
down" the option for the entire company - or? On the other hand, I can't
right now see any good reason why I should see all the others' details when
planning a meeting, for instance. It should be enough with "the Colours" and
busy/free. What's the use with me seeing, not only that my boss is busy at a
certain time, but also that he's busy with a "rehab meeting" with A. A-son?!
Thanks for the conversation and your help - will talk to admin!

Different people in different organizations need different levels of access to each other's calendar information. For most people, the simple free/busy indicators are more than enough.
