We use oulook at work and have it set up so that we can all view each others calendars. Is there anyway we can set up a "combined" calendar so that we cann see, on a seingle page/screen what every one is up to. This would be really handy to give the reception staff an "at a glance" view of who is in or out of the office. Needs to cater for 12 folk.

There used to be a extra bit you could install to share calendars, but it dissappeared.

The way we do it is a shared mailbox that everyone has rights to. Works well enough.

[edit]

Outlook Team Calendar is what I've seen. I'm sure there's a security risk with it though....

[edit again]

I'm assuming you have MS Exchange?

If you use exchange, then it can be set up directly on the server control panel and shared using existing group policies.

All sign up for Google calendar, share it with everyone else. Simples :P

When we enter an appointment we send it to a group list (everyones email address in our department) when you accept this appointment it goes in your diary.

As long as you stick to it everyone can see where everyone is supposed to be!

did cross my mind but all use Outlook for emails/contacts/tasks etcand some suers (the bosses!!) also have goosberries.

Athought there are 12 in our office we are a national; business with about 40 offices and a bit restricted in what out IT guys will allow.

Thanks for all the replies, food for thought!
