Exchange public folders - categories not the same after upgrading to Exchange 2010
Hi, We recently upgraded from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010. We use Office 2010. We have an Office calendar wihtin the Exchange Public folders that was create for our users to post when they would be out of the office. We had categories created in the past (when we were on Exchange 2003) that allowed us to create a custom "master" cateory list. This list was used to define why somone was out (i.e. vacation day, sick day, etc.) which were assigned by color. Since the upgrade, it sees that there is no way to 'Lock" these categories for this public folder calendar. If somone happens to create a custom category of there own, that's what they see when they are in this public folder calendar. This defeats having a standard that the office can all use and choose from. Does anyone know how I can lock this on Exchange 2010? Thanks for your help! Terry Brewer

I'm 99% certain that's an Outlook thing, so I recommend you post in the Outlook forum.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."
