Does Notes offer a template database for someone wanting just a calendar database? Everything I’ve seen thus far seems to be the full mail template. I’d like to give teams a place they can store vacations, days out, coverage, etc., without the inbox, to do, etc.
TIA.

What you want is called a group calendar, and a template already exists for it.
Subject: Great. Where can I find the group calendar NTF?

Subject: Nevermind. I found info in Notes Help. Thanks.

What I have done in that past is to create a new database based on the mail template and modify the design to hide any reference to the mail and to-do’s. By changing the design properties to open the database to the CalendarFS rather than the MailFS.
Modify the “Switcher Form for Calendar” form to remove the Action links for “Switch to Mail” and “Switch to To Do”
This will force the database to open the calendar.
You will have problems with the Database owner in the profile and you will to do some modifications to work around that.

There’s also the team room template, that contains a calendar.

You’ll have to wait 12 hours for me to answer that question. I’m at home at the mo, and cannot look it up. I’m pretty sure its is included with domino 6 though. When I get into work tomorrow morning I’ll check out what the template is called and post up the answer around 9:30am GMT+1

in what version of the notes server? It is not in R6.

I’m running domino 6.5.1 and I’ve got a team room template called teamrm6.ntf
Also, just checked another server running 5.0.13 and there’s a template called teamrm50.ntf

How did you removed the action links?
Subject: RE: Is there a standard Notes Calendar template, or just mail?
I can’t seem to remove the action links for “Switch to Mail” or “Switch to To Do”. Is there a secret? I can remove the command in the link which only keeps the action from being performed. I need the selection not to be there at all.
