When we send appointments to shared calendars they show up for some reason as
either "tentative" or "busy". Is there a way is outlook 2003 sp2, to set a default to "tentative"? Thanks. |

Outlook already works that way: Appointments should show as "busy" only if someone accepts them.

I'm testing this by sending an appointment to a few shared calendars as a
delegate with the auto-accept appointments feature on. When I send an appointment, I will receive an email saying it was accepted, then a few minutes later it posts to the calendar. Some calendars will show as busy every time, others tentative and busy. Any suggestions?

None. Tell us what's different about the setup of those calendars.

Don't see anything different. What is the same is the auto-accept is on,
there is a delegate with editor permission on the calendar, and none of the calendars we are testing are being used. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: None.

I know of only two methods I know of that will result in a Busy status for a meeting request:
1) Either a user manually accepts it 2) or an autoaccept script on the server accepts it. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "dereks" wrote in message ...
