SYMPTOMS

When you upgrade from Microsoft Mail version 3.0 and Microsoft Schedule+ version 1.0 to Microsoft Exchange version 4.0 and Microsoft Schedule+ version 7.0, you may be asked to enter a password when you try to synchronize your local calendar file with the server-based calendar file. Entering a new password using the Change Password command on the Tools menu does not correct this problem.

CAUSE

The server-based calendar file is protected with the password from Microsoft Schedule+ 1.0.

WORKAROUND

To correct this problem, use the following steps:

  1. Start Microsoft Schedule+ 7.0.
  2. On the File menu, point to Export, and then click Schedule+ Interchange.
  3. In the Export Schedule+ Interchange dialog box, use the default file name and path or type a new name and path in the File Name box. Under Export Range, click to select All Dates. Under Export, click to select All Calendar Data.
  4. Click OK.
  5. On the File menu, click Exit And Log Off.
  6. Press and hold the CTRL+SHIFT keys and start Microsoft Schedule+. When you receive a warning message box indicating that you started Microsoft Schedule+ using the CTRL+SHIFT keys, click Yes.

    The calendar information and password will be cleared.
  7. On the File menu, point to Import, and then click Schedule+ Interchange.
  8. In the Import Schedule+ Interchange dialog box, type the path and file name of the file you created in step 3, and then click Open.

    The calendar information you exported in steps 2-4 will be imported and you will no longer be prompted for a password.
