I have clients who have personal Outlook calendars, as well as synced internet calendars that also contain information that they want to see in the Busy Status part of the Scheduling Assistant. So far these clients have been using either Outlook 2007 or 2010.

Is seems the default behavior of the Scheduling Assistant is to show the busy status of the personal calendar, but not for any synced calendars. I attempted to tweak things to get it to also incorporate the synced calendar, like dragging the synced one into the My Calendars section, but nothing has worked so far.

One way this can partially be done is by exporting the internet calendar and then importing it to merge with the main calendar, however this would remove the syncing functionality. This solution would get rather cumbersome one had to export and import every day to remain synced.

The ideal situation would be for the busy status part of the Scheduling Assistant (when making an appointment) to show appointments that were on both the personal calendar and the synced calendar. Does anyone know if this is possible in Outlook 2007 or 2010?

The scheduling assistant uses the free/busy, which is not available on the internet calendars. They can use schedule view if they want to include their internet calendars - then use New Meeting > With all to create a meeting with the calendar own

This doesn't show OTHERS your true availability when they are inviting you to meeting; it only works if you are scheduling the appointment. Need others to be able to see all of your calendars.

if Free/Busy is published and they have the published location, it will show on the Scheduling tab. coworkers on the same Exchange server will have the correct free/busy location but they'll only see if your calendar permissions are such that they can see it.
