Connecting to a Shared View Folder

Some organizations prefer to have an administrator create common views for users rather than have users create them individually. The administrator then places these views in a shared folder for other users to access.

Follow these steps to connect to a shared folder:

1. Right-click a service within the Navigation Bar (or Folder List) and select Connect to Shared Folder.
   • Alternatively, you can click the Connect to Shared Folder button in the Service toolbar.
   • The Connect to Shared Folder dialog box displays. This dialog box shows a list of all the users on the system who have made shared folders for this service.
     
     
2. Browse through the list of available users and their folders.
   
   
3. Select a shared folder and click OK.
   • The new shared folder displays in the Navigation Bar (and Folder List), as a folder icon with a connector bar underneath it to indicate it is a linked folder.
