Hi,
I have a vision for greater convenience when using sharepoint. I want to have a calendar draw its data from several lower level calendars. So if a manager manages 3 projects, I want each project to have its own calendar, and I want the manager to be able to see the 3 calendars in one calendar. I'm aware of the overlay feature of outlook, but I'm trying to find something that will populate a single "manager" calendar so that it can be viewed in sharepoint.
So I'm trying to write a macro that will fire when I create an appt on a sharepoint calendar (viewed in outlook) that will make a copy of that appt on another sharepoint calendar (also viewed in my outlook).
In a best case scenario, I'd come up with another macro that will fire when the sharepoint appt is deleted and it will delete the corresponding event on the second calendar.
I'm envisioning something that will create some sort of custom data ID for each appt that will allow identification of the duplicates. Maybe it could just be done with some simple if then statements matching the title, location, and description of the appts.
I'm in the starting phase of this, so I don't even have a start. Any ideas or resources are appreciated. Any code is even better
