Network and private calendar

[MO22]

I'm using Outlook 2000 on a network. In addition to my work-related appointments, I also have many private appointments, but I'm getting tired of marking them all "Private" (and forgetting some!)

Is it possible for me to have two calendars - my normal network one and a private one (in a .pst file??) and somehow add myself as a delegate? I'd like to be able to view my "work" calendar, and choose whether to view the private calendar only when I want to, without doing an irreversible "merge" of the two calendars.

Either create a second .pst file and add it to Outlook or right-click your calendar icon in the folder list and add a new folder containing appointment items. *Remember.......

I did create a second pst file with my personal items in it. Can I now see my "work" calendar with my personal calendar "overlaid", without merging them permanently?
Thanks

Then you have to keep them in 1 calendar and assign a category to each appointment. (ie. personal and business Then set up a custom view which filters for one, the other, or both. See the following website for more info:

If you want to keep them in seperate .pst files, the best you can do is to download a 3rd party viewer (from the MS website)which allows you to view them side by side in seperate windows. *Remember.......

I check out the website - that looks like the best I will be able to do.

I think when I used to use Lotus Organizer that you could "overlay" two schedules without having to "import" them, so I was hoping to do that with Outlook.

Thanks for the tip!
