MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / January 2008viewing other attendees when planning a meeting
hello when i view shared calendars in outlook, i can see my co-workers appts however, if i go to plan a meeting, and try to add other attendees, there are no personal address books to choose from (i don't think we use inter-office mail) how can i view the free/busy time for my co-workers through the plan a meeting option? (i can see their free/busy times if i just click on each day of the calendar to see if they are busy that day but it's cumbersome) i use thunderbird for my emails between co-workers (they use outlook) thanks for your help chris what mail server do you use? If exchange, you'll get names from the gal, not from a personal address book.

If you have Contacts in the Contacts folder but they are not accessible when you click on the To button, check these settings: Make sure the Contact folder is enabled as an email address book. Right click the Contacts folder, choose Properties then Outlook Address Book. Is the box to enable as email address book is checked? If this is grayed out... Go to Tools | Email Accounts, choose View or change existing directories or address book. Is the Outlook Address Book present? If it isn't listed, add it and close and restart Outlook. If it is listed, then remove it and close then restart Outlook and repeat these steps to add it.
