I did a quick check on CDO 1.21 and this shows as win98 and w2000. Both
machines are XP. Will this version work? Will it work without an Exchange
server.

Note: we are not using exchange. Using a product called WorkGroupShare to
share the calendars.

It's possible with custom programming scripts, assuming CDO 1.21 is installed on each machine. Search my http://www.outlookcode.com site for -- calendar color labels -- to see sample code. Note that the color labels are per-folder, not per-user

Outlook 2007 makes this process much easier.

When scheduling an activity, you are able to customize lables - description
and color... so that you can select the "Label" you want. e.g. Project
Overview meetings are blue. This allows you to standardize the color of
different types of activities on the calendar.

Once you have defined your label descriptions and colors, is it possible to
transfer these settings to other users or apply them Globally?

I am asking as I have two users who share calendars. They have defined the
labels so they are identical. If they want to apply a label to their own
calendar, the choices available are the ones they defined. HOWEVER, If they
try to apply a label to an activity on the other users calendar, the drop
down shows the orignal default settings.

So I guess what we really want to do is change the default listing... and
changing it on each machine does not appear to do that.

Thanks for any suggestions that can help resolve this.
