Delegate Access to Folders
When you modified the default calendar permissions, you gave anyone who wants
it the ability to access your calendar folder. Depending on what permission
level you assign, it can be dangerous to give access to an Outlook folder. For
more control of who can access such folders, you can set a
delegate.
- Display the Permissions tab of the desired folder’s Properties dialog
box:
- Right-click the desired folder, choose Properties,
and then select the Permissions tab.
- Or, if the folder is your calendar, contacts or tasks folder, display
that folder and click the Share My Calendar, Share
My Contacts or Share my Tasks link in the Navigation
Pane.
- Click Add to display the Add User dialog box.
- In the Add Users dialog box, specify the names you want
to add:
- In the Name list box, double-click the name of the user.
- Or, from the Name list box, select the name of the user and click Add.
- Or, in the Type Name or Select From List text box, type the name of
the user and click Add.
- Click OK.
- In the Name list, select the name of the user who you want to delegate
access.
