NOTE: These procedures only apply if you have installed Outlook with the Corporate Workgroup/Other option. This option allows you to use Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) services. To determine your installation type, on the Help Menu click About Microsoft Outlook. In About Microsoft Outlook you should see "Corporate" if you have the Corporate Workgroup installation.



SYMPTOMS
When you share your Microsoft Outlook 98 Calendar folder with another Microsoft Exchange Server user, your TaskPad may not be available to them.



CAUSE
You have not assigned permissions to your Task folder.



RESOLUTION
If you want others to view your TaskPad when they view your calendar folder, assign permissions to both your Calendar folder and your Task folder.



MORE INFORMATION
The Calendar and Task folders each carry their own permissions. Although the tasks are included in the Day/Week/Month view of your calendar, the TaskPad view is not available to others unless you also assign permissions to the Task folder.

NOTE: The TaskPad is only available if you are sharing with other Exchange Server users.

Assigning Permissions to Your Task Folder
To assign permissions to your Task folder, follow these steps:


 * 1) In the Folder List, right-click the Task folder and on the shortcut menu click Properties.
 * 2) On the Permissions tab, click Add to include the user you wish to assign permissions, or click the Default entry.
 * 3) From the Roles list, click the role you wish to assign, or click to select individual permissions, then click OK.
