Forwarding the calendar

View member feedback to this tip.

The major problem in general with Prt-Scrn is that it will use the screen resolution and color quality of the screen. In my case this means that 1280 x 1024 + highest color quality (32 bits) means the size of the memo is almost 150 KB (per picture!).

To forward a calendar entry you simply define it as a "meeting" instead of an "appointment," and depending on circumstances put the receiver into the To, CC, or BCC field. It works even for non-Notes receivers.
