You can create a variety of new workspaces using the Create New Workspace dialog box. You can also create a new workspace from a template or create a new workspace from an archive.
Note: For detailed instructions on creating a file sharing workspace, see Creating a file sharing workspace.
To create a new workspace:
Select File - New - Workspace... from the Launchbar or the Groove Workspace Explorer.
Name the workspace.
Select a workspace type.
Read the description of the selected workspace type to see details about
its contents and purpose. The Templates drop-down list includes a variety
of workspace templates,
which are workspaces that contain a collection of tools intended for a
specific purpose.
You can also click Browse Templates to
browse the groove.net Web site for more workspace templates.
To see additional workspace options, click Advanced.
Groove version. Select the Groove version that all invitees must have to join this workspace. You might select an earlier version if you know that at least one intended invitee is running the earlier version. Some workspace tools (for example, Groove Files Tool), require members to be running at least a certain Groove version.
Identity in this workspace. If you have more than one identity in your Groove account, select the identity you want to use in this workspace.
Click OK.
Groove creates the workspace and lists you as the initial member with the role of Manager. You can now customize the workspace components and send workspace invitations.
If you've saved an existing workspace as a template or have access to workspace templates created by others, you can use these as the basis for new workspaces. If the workspace template is stored in the Groove Workspace Templates folder in My Documents (the default location), the template will display in the Create New Workspace dialog box in the Workspace Type drop-down menu.
If the workspace template is stored in a different folder, you can select it to create a new workspace as follows:
Select File - New - Workspace from - Template...
In the Browse dialog box, select the workspace template file you want and click Open.
