Outlook Calendar
Hi All,
We would like to maintain a team calendar and record all our meetings/leave etc. While we could create a calendar in the outlook public folders, the problem is that if you create an event in that calendar and set a reminder, it says that the tasks and reminders will not work since it's a public folder. What is the best way to maintain a common calendar while ensuring that the alerts will go out to all the team members?
Thanks

Thanks to all for your suggestions. I tried creating a shared calendar on one of the PC and tried accessing it from other PCs. However I get the error "Cannot open the folder." although I have granted permissions. I have even tried restarting Outlook. Can someone tell me why this is happening? Thanks
