Delegates In Outlook Part III

In the previous installment of Delegates in Outlook, you learned how to give someone else access to your calendar. Now, Let us assume that you have been delegated access to your manager’s Outlook calendar. How do you go about sending a meeting request on your manager’s behalf?

You can send a meeting request on behalf of another user by completing the steps described below:

1. Open Outlook. 
2. Click the File menu.
3. Point to Open and select Other User’s Folder.
4. Enter the user’s name whose calendar you have been delegated access.
5. Click Calendar in the Folder type list.
6. Click OK.
7. Complete the item as you would a normal meeting request.

You will also receive the attendees’ responses to the meeting request that you send on behalf of another user. As a delegate, you can respond to these (such as a request to move the meeting to a new time) on behalf of the other user. To do so, make sure you are working within the other user’s Calendar (as described in the steps above).
