SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, you cannot change a user's categories when you work as a delegate in another user's Inbox or Outlook folder.



CAUSE
This issue occurs if you do not have Owner permissions to the user's Inbox or Outlook folder.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, ask the user who gave you delegate access to give you Owner permissions to their Inbox or Outlook folder.

To give a delegate Owner permissions, follow these steps:
 * 1) Start Outlook 2007.
 * 2) On the Go menu, click Folder List.
 * 3) Right-click the Inbox folder. Or, right-click the Outlook folder to which you gave the delegate access. Then, click Properties.
 * 4) Click the Permissions tab.
 * 5) Click to select the user to whom you want to give access to your categories.
 * 6) Under Permissions, click Owner in the Permissions Level box, and then click OK.
