MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / June 2007Linking events to other calendars
My company has a master calendar for all events and appointments. I want to create a second calendar which will "pull out" certain of those events - defined by "category" - so that my second calendar's duplicate events will be automatically updated when an event is changed on the master calendar. Is there a way to do this without creating another user? I'm not sure how another user would make a difference.... but no, you can't do it using Outlook's native capabilities. Can you use the same calendar and create a filter for the categories?

The main reason I was creating the additional calendar is to try to get around the way Outlook prints calendars. I downloaded a macro that pulls events and appointments from Outlook into a Word document, where I can format the info more easily, but it pulls ALL of the events with no filtering. Therefore, I was pulling events off the master calendar into a second one so I could use that macro. I do use the filter for categories to display the events I want on the master calendar, but the dearth of options in printing from Outlook makes the printed results very cumbersome. I'm still looking for a different macro. I may have to learn to write macros from scratch! > I'm not sure how another user would make a difference.... but no, you can't > do it using Outlook's native capabilities.
