Shared Calendars in Outlook Dissapear

Hi

I have several shared calendars open in my Outlook 2007. Every now and then (sometimes weeks) I would go back into Outlook and they would dissapear as if I had never opened them.

This is also happening on other PC's and some of them are Outlook 2003.

We are running SBS 2003, with Exchange 2003

Thanks in advance

From reading the internet I have found this to be an OST issue.

Thank you for the quick reply.

I will give this a go on the affected PC's. Unfortunately, the problem was intermittent so it may be a while before I can tell if it has worked or not.

One more thing to add though. If I were to delete the OST file as recommended in the link you provided, what exactly from within Outlook is this deleting? Would I need to take a backup of Outlook first?

Thanks

Removing the OST just removes the CACHED files and is rebuilt from the Exchange Server
