I'm CC'ing the list hope you don't mind. The "Share Calendar" feature is the Outlook friendly-name for what's more formally called "Calendar Delegation" by developers. Basically the only documentation I've found on the web describing this feature in Outlook are two postings on Google groups... http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.win32.programmer.messaging/browse_thread/thread/ce6f5c1a4e2691bb http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.win32.programmer.messaging/browse_thread/thread/be255dd3c7d6c522 Although, I've implemented the changes described in those postings, the feature is far from complete. We have to figure out how to document its remainder. That's what holding-up development right now. To explain a bit further... If you are familiar with Outlook, you'd may have seen a small link near your main calendar labeled "Open a Shared Calendar..." This link allows you to gain delegate calendar access to another user's calendar. That way a personal assistant can schedule an executive for a meeting if that assistant had been given the right permissions, for instance. This is what needs to be documented. If someone volunteer's Outlook's delegation feature documentation, we could probably have a stable "Milestone 4" within 2 months. Without that documented, it will take 4-6+ weeks of full-time development to figure delegation out, I suspect. Maybe more... So basically, I need help getting past this prerequisite.
