Outlook Connector - 2 Laptops

C

CapeMayAl

1) I have a paid MSN Hotmail account

2) I have 2 laptops - my wife and I

3) We both have Outlook 2007

4) I can sync my Outlook with Hotmail

3) I wish to have my wife's Outlook sync with my Hotmail account

4) I only want my calendar to sync with her Outlook

5) I want her to have the ability to make changes to the calendar, sync it
back to my hot mail account.

Thanks in advance for the help.

If you wish to share a Hotmail account, just define that account on both PCs.
You can't share just the calendar, you need to both connect to the same
account.

You can go to Outlook Connector menu, Sharing and share the calendar with
other hotmail users (it takes you to the live website so you can configure
sharing).

Does that allow read/write sharing? I thought on-line calendars were
read-only for non-owners.

Office online publishing is read only but sharing hotmail/live calendars
using the connector allows different permissions (4 or 5) much like an
exchange server. It's actually hotmail/live that is controlling the
sharing - you don't need to use outlook to share them.
