Assistance in Printing Shared Calendar Office 2k3

I am running Office 2003 in an Exchange enviroment.

I have shared out my calendar (PC1) (calendar exist on Exchange Server). I
add people to the access list and assign rights.

I go to the authorized persons PC (PC2) and connect to the shared calendar
ok. I can add and delete items on the calendar OK.

Problem occurs when the user on PC2 tries to print Tri-Fold or Daily Print.
I get an error stating; "The messaging interface has returned an unknown
error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook." The error is persistant on
all my PC's and restarting has not affect.

I can print the Weekly and Monthly without the error.

Why can i only print two of the four print styles in a shared calendar?

Note, I can print them from the users local personal calendar but not from
the connected shared.

Here is what worked for me.

Follow these steps to deselect the TaskPad option when printing the Daily
Style:
1. Open the shared calendar.
2. On the Outlook File menu, click Print.
3. Under Print Style, click to select Daily Style and click Page Setup.
4. Click TaskPad to deselect it.
5. Click OK and OK to close and print.

Thanks ed!
AH!!!! That makes sense now.... Since the user didn't have access to taskpad
on my system, this "style" was trying to access it. Unchecking the taskpad
portion worked on both the Tri-fold and Daily Print style. On the Tri-fold
for the middle section selecting Notes(blank) worked.

However I didn't get a chance to see if sharing out my taskpad would allow
that view to operate without de-selecting. It stands to reason that the view
would print if I had done so.

Maybe some time in the future MS could program that "Style" print to default
to Unchecked or Blank if taskpad is not accessble for the Daily style and
default to Notes (blank) for tri-fold style. Instead of just erroring out
without reason... or at least state why it errors like, "Error: Taskpad was
not accessable, please pick or deselect taskpad in the page setup before
printing"

Oh well,
Thanks...
Tim
