The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Outlook 2000
This article was previously published under Q196888


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 set up an appointment in a secondary calendar, you will not be notified if the new appointment conflicts with an existing appointment.

CAUSE

Calendar options that require an action such as notification of conflicting appointments only apply to your primary calendar. The primary calendar is determined by the delivery location of your e-mail. Microsoft Outlook applies these actions to only one calendar per user session. There is no mechanism to apply these actions to other calendars.

MORE INFORMATION

To use another calendar as your primary calendar, change the delivery location of your e-mail. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. On the Tools menu, click Services.
  2. On the Delivery tab in "Deliver new mail to the following location" click to select the new delivery location from the list.
  3. Click Apply and then click OK.
