Default Can two networked home computers share an Outlook 2000 Calenda

I was hoping for a way to do this a little simpler. Can two computers
access the same pst file in a shared folder without causing problems?


Yes, provided only one Outlook is running at any one time. On the "master"
PC, put the PST in a locally-hosted network share. Start Outlook and when
it complains that it can't find the folders, browse to the new location of
the PST. On the remote PC, add the PST with FIleOpenPersonal Folders
File, browse to the share, select the PST and click OK.

Be sure to make frequent PST backups as this isn't supported and can lead to
data loss.
