re-distributable Shortcut to Public Folder calendar in Outlook 2010?

[Ex-MGSTech]

OK, I give up, anyone managed to get this working?

Create a Desktop shortcut to an Outlook folder | MSOutlook.info

 

Outlook 2010

Exchange 2010

 

All I need is a shortcut I can deploy to everyone's desktop to a common school calendar located in the Exchange public folders

 

path to folder is: \\Public Folders - my username@***-****.org.uk\All Public Folders\School Calendar

 

I'd like to be able to deploy a common shortcut not ones I have to customise with each users fully quallified username!

 

this was an easy job in Outlook 2003!

So, here's how I've had to do it in Outlook 2010 (yeesh..). Create a Shortcut (e.g. on the Desktop)

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE" /recycle /select "outlook://Public Folders/All Public Folders/[Your Public Folder]"

 

with a "Start in" directory of:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12"

Outlook 2010 Public Folder Calendar Shortcut? - Spiceworks

 

 

Outlook 2010 is part of Office 14, and needs the users email in the path (although I can't seem to get this working either!)

 

In the Spiceworks link its not a solution I can deploy easily, each user would need this done on their account seperatly...
