GAINING INITIAL ACCESS TO COMPUTER LAB AND ASSIGNMENT SCHEDULES
You should use GroupWise for reserving computer rooms as well as for viewing or posting assignments in the master assignment calendars. However, before you can do that, you must first acquire access to the relevant calendars: Room 12, Networked Classroom, US Assignments, or MS Assignments. (You need only acquire access one time, after which you can view and use those calendars as described on the "How To" sheets regarding computer lab and assignment calendars.) To initially acquire access to those calendars, follow the steps below. (If you get any sort of "access denied" error, contact a systems administrator.)
| Log into a computer, then start GroupWise. | |
| Left-click "Calendar" in the list in the left-hand window. | ![]() |
| From the "calendar view" icons near the upper right part of your screen, select Multi-User. | ![]() |
| You should then see, in columns, all of the calendars to which you have acquired access. If you have calendars for the computer labs and the relevant assignment lists, you need proceed no further in this "How To" document. If you need one or more additional calendars, proceed to the next step. | |
| Right-click (click the right mouse button) on the top of a column (there may be only one column; in the example, you would right-click on "Sam Hicken"). A "Multi-User List" button should then appear. Left-click the button. | ![]() |
| The "Multi-User List" dialog box should appear. Left-click the book icon to open a list of calendars to access. | ![]() |
| Scroll through the list of "accounts" until you find one that you would like to access (the names are in alphabetical order). Then drag the account to the right frame (hold down the left mouse button while moving the mouse; release mouse button in right frame). If you drag each of the two computer labs and each of the two assignment calendars, your window should look similar to the one of the right. When done dragging names to the right frame, click the OK button. |

| You should find yourself back at the previous dialog box (Multi-User List). The list should now have entries for the calendars you requested. Click the OK button of the Multi_User List dialog box. | ![]() |
| You should see the multiple calendars, typically with each in its own column of the calendar window. You now have access to those calendars. You can use the Computer Lab calendars to book a computer room, and you can use the Assignment calendars to enter assignments. Refer to the respective help "How To" page for information on each of those procedures. | ![]() |
