The free/busy grid displays only your working hours when you create a new meeting request in Outlook 2007

By default, when you create a new meeting request and then click the Scheduling Assistant tab in Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, the free/busy grid displays only your working hours.

For example, if your working hours are 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, the free/busy grid shows only these hours. This is because the Scheduling Assistant tab is configured to use the Show Only My Working Hours setting.

The Show Only My Working Hours setting is not configurable in either the Group Policy template file (Outlk12.adm) or in the Office Customization Tool template file (Outlk12.opa).

If you want to see other meeting attendees' working hours in Outlook 2007, manually disable the Show Only My Working Hours setting. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open the meeting request.
2. Click Scheduling Assistant.
3. Click Options.
4. Click to clear the Show Only My Working Hours check box.
