Public folders definitely fits what you want to accomplish there. You can simply use permissions to give only smaller "pilot" group the tastes of what you have set up. Make sure that you take the top-folder create permission off of the default setting, which allows everyone to create. Also, design a good hiarchy first.

Subject: Lotus Notes "Like" Document Repository? Hello to all, First let me start by stating that this is my first question on ANY list. I traditionally found lists full of banter and unproductive reading, BUT this list is different I realized after only reading a few long subjects. My hat is off to all of you! I passed the note below to Stu @ Sunbelt and he thought you all may be able to point me in the right direction. ====Snip==== I have been searching Hi and Low and have not been able to come up with something concrete that could help my with an idea I have. I used to work at CompUSA as an Account Executive. We used Lotus Notes for collaboration and email and I remember something that kept me ahead of my more "unproductive" peers - The Document Repository. In there was all the company's divisional information for each Store's management and Corporate sales team to ponder. I literally lived in there! I was WELL informed of new company issues, goals, incentives, etc. as well as our product manufacturers NEW/HOT info. This single point of reference resource was invaluable to me and those that utilized it for what it was. I could easily spot outdated info that had not been archived/deleted and I also knew "corporate" thoughts without annoying conference calls that would go on FOREVER! Now I work for a Transportation company with three terminals. We use Exchange Server 2000 (not enterprise). I was wondering if you were familiar with that Document Repository from Lotus Notes and more importantly if there were some way to create something similar in Exchange. I can not see why not with the use of Public Folders and whatnot, but I am a little lost on how to get started with a small pilot. Do you have any ideas? ====Snip==== If you need further details on the WHY's or HOW's this would be used, simply ask away... Thank You! to you all in advance for any help you may offer, Daniel ------------------------------------ Daniel S.
