Best solution for sharing Outlook in a small office (7 - 10 users)

**Elton Turnage** · March 30th 06, 08:18 AM posted to microsoft.public.outlook

Just installed Office Professional 2003 on 7 systems in our office. We need
to share calendar and contact manager. Our network is a basic peer to peer
system with all computers running Windows XP. We have a shared computer
running Windows 2000 acting as a file server. Just read the specs for
Microsoft Exchange Server and would really rather not have to install Windows
2003 Server as well as Exchange Server. Is there a simple solution ?
