Default Compose Calendar Invite, them email to group for them to send

Hello,
I am composing a calendar invite for a group of managers. I want to be able
to send this invite to them via email, so they can open the invite and send
it off to their clients. This way it will be the same invite, but the
manager's name will be on the invite request (note mine), and they can send
it off to their clients.

I tried composing the calendar invite and copying it in an email, but that
didn't work, any suggestions?

Default Compose Calendar Invite, them email to group for them to send

Hello,

I read through the discussion topics and found my answer. I need to compose
the calendar invite, save as an iCalendar format (.ics) to my desktop and
then attach to the email. The email recipient will open the calendar invite
and send to their list. This way it will be an invite from them, and not me.
(My only dilema is the format is missing from the invite (bold, italics,
color))

Any ideas on this one?

Outlook's iCalendar implemention doesn't support formatting.

Thanks Sue, but is there another way I can send this invite and keep the
formatting?

Save it as an .msg file, not an .ics file, and send the file in a rich-text format message.
