Default How Do You Prevent Anyone From Seeing Your Appointment Details

First thing to understand is that the ability to see details of your
meetings is turned OFF by default. You could double check this with your
IT support people in case they have set soemthing globally for your
organisation.

To GIVE people permission, you right click your Calendar folder, Properties,
Permissions and check if anyone has any permissions. Check the Default is
set to permission level of None. If there are user names there, they will
have a permission level beside them. If there are no user names there,
no-on has permission to see the popup details of your calendar. If there's
a user name there with for example Reviewer level permission, you can delete
them and they will no longer see your meeting details.

No-one can TAKE permission for you folder, it happens at your end.

We have Exchange 2003 SP2 deployed with Office 2003 SP3 (so we have
Outlook 2K3 SP3 as well). When I go to set up an appointment with people
most of them will allow me to see the details of the meetings they already
have scheduled by placing my cursor over the meeting in 'Scheduling'.
However, some of them don't. If I place my cursor over the scheduled
meeting they have it just stays a blue bar with no pop up info occuring.
I cannot find anywhere that tells me how to set this to not allow the
details to show up in either Exchange (some setting there) or an Outlook
setting. I was told a while ago to mark any appointments as "private" but
that's not the setting I am looking for. It does not prevent people from
seeing the appointment details on ALL meetings - just those few set as
private. Since some users do show their details and others don't it has
to be a setting somwhere that can be set but I have not found it. I think
I've gone into ever aspect of Outlook Options but still no go. Anyone
know where this setting is found and how to turn it on and off?

Thanks,
Jon
