Overview
--------

This driver enables a Microsoft Schedule+ 7.x user to open a Microsoft Outlook
user's calendar in Schedule+ ("Schedule+ 7.x" is a general term referring to
Schedule+ 7.0, Schedule+ 7.5, and Schedule+ 95).

After the driver is installed, the Schedule+ user can open an Outlook user's
calendar (Open command, File menu, Open Other's Appointment Book submenu). The
Schedule+ user must have Read permission for the Outlook user's calendar, and
that calendar must be stored on the Exchange Server.

NOTE: The Schedule+ user can only read the Outlook user's Calendar, not add to or
edit it, regardless of the permissions granted by the Outlook user.

Supported Configurations/Platforms
----------------------------------

This driver works only on 32-bit versions of Microsoft Schedule+ 7.x (for Windows
95 and Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0). It does not work with the 16-bit version of
Schedule+ 7.x (for Windows 3.1 and 3.11).

Both the Schedule+ and Outlook users must be running Exchange Server.

Installing the Driver
---------------------

Computer requirements: x86 architecture

Operating system requirements: Windows 95, Windows NT 3.51, or 4.0 (32-bit)

Dependent programs: Schedule+ 7.x (32 bit)

Removing the Driver
-------------------

Windows NT 4.0:

1. On the Windows Start menu, point to Settings and then click Control Panel.

2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.

3. On the Install/Uninstall tab, click Microsoft Outlook 97 Driver for Schedule+

then deleting Msoutl32.dll and Msostubs.dll. These files are located in the same
folder as Schedule+ 7.x.

Known Issues
------------

- All-day events in Outlook appear as appointments when viewed in Schedule+ 7.x
  using the Outlook Driver for Schedule+ 7.x.

- If Schedule+ 7.x is re-installed, then the driver will also need to be
  re-installed afterward.

- An Outlook user might share his or her Outlook Calendar with other users,
  then switch to using Schedule+ 7.x as the primary calendar. In this case,
  Schedule+ 7.x users who are using the Outlook Driver for Schedule+ 7.x to
  open that user's calendar will continue to open that user's Outlook calendar
  instead of that user's Schedule+ 7.x calendar. To solve this, the Outlook
  user needs to remove the permissions on his or her Outlook Calendar folder so
  that the Outlook Driver for Schedule+ 7.x will not open it.

- Outlook appointments with more than 32 KB of text in the Notes field will
  appear to have a blank Notes field when viewed in Schedule+ 7.x using the
  Outlook Driver for Schedule+ 7.x.
