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.

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.
