Thanks Michael- I am using EX2007 so I went to Org Config in EMC and went to Offline address book and right clicked the default and clicked update, it warned me and proceeded about its business. That however didn't seem to do anything, when I clicked download address book I got a "object cannot be found" error.
However I then went off on my own trying things.... :) Under address lists I created a new address list and in the criteria specified that all users with an exchange mailbox would be in the list. Done... went to outlook and clicked the arrow next to send and receive and it worked, however the Global address list is still lacking 95% of the people, but in the dropdown I can now select the list I just created and see everyone. It seems that any new accounts that have been created since our very first batch of 10 have not been added to the global address list. Is there a way to create a new default global address list or change the criteria of it or force it to add all the new mailboxes. I love when one problem ends up being something else. Thanks Ehren J.

By default, you only get a fresh address book once a day.

We have around 150 people currently on the exchange server and more being migrated every day, however when I click add in the permissions tab to add a user only about 10 users show up in the global address list....any ideas why that would be? Do I have to do something to the accounts to make them show up there? Thanks Ehren J.

Never use the DELEGATES tab to share your calendar. This will give others SEND AS permissions even if your intention was to only let them be reviewers on your calendar. Read that first window on the Delegates tab... Right-click the calendar in the folder list, Select Properties, Select the Permissions tab and set your desired permissions there.

To Add someone as a Delegate >From the Main Outlook Window From the Tools menu Select Options Click on the Delegates tab Click the Add button and set the appropriate permissions To directly change the Calendar Permissions go to the Properties of the Calendar Click on the Permissions tab Click the Add button and set the appropriate permission level Do these options work? From: Ehren Benson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2008 12:33 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Sharing Calendars - EX2007/OL2007 Hello- I have a strange issue when I and others on our system try and share our calendars with others. In outlook 2007 on exchange 2007 I click calendar and then click 'share my calendar' and type in the person I want to share it with and then click send, outlook quickly retorts with the response: "Calendar sharing is not available with the following entries because of permission settings on your network: <person I was sending calendar to> Do you want to send them a copy of this calendar in an email message instead?" (screenshot is below) This is probably a simple thing but when I google search it seems to be a quite common issue and I have not seen any clear resolutions to it. Does anyone have any insight for me? Thanks a lot! [cid:image001.png@01C8D1EF.F39A1710] Ehren J.
