I am using Outlook 2007, and am trying to set up recurring US Postal
Holidays. I'm stumped as to how to schedule recurring holidays with a Sunday exception. For instance, Veteran's Day is every November 11. The US Postal Service observes this holiday on Nov. 11 UNLESS it occurs on a Sunday. Is there a way to make an exception in a recurring holiday so that if the date falls on a Sunday, the program moves it to the closest workday? |

no, outlook doesn't support things like that.

I've seen 3rd party utilities that might this.
This is one: http://www.programurl.com/ws-repeat-appointment.htm Also try http://www.slipstick.com/addins/calendar.asp but I think there are more out there. -- Bill R "cyndiwise notsowise" wrote in message ... Thanks - I suspected as much. I'd like to suggest that Microsoft consider this feature for future updates - Lotus Notes has had that feature for many years.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, WS Repeat Appointment has not been
updated since Nov. 2005, so most likely it's not fully compatible with OL 2007. The Slipstick website only had WS Repeat Appointment, no other choices for repeating appointments with an irregular schedule. Google did not turn up any alternatives either, only WS Repeat Appointment. If anyone else knows of a third party addin that would be compatible with OL 2007 and would help set up repeating appointments with an irregular schedule, I would love to hear from you.

There's something more recent that was posted in these forums.
Unfortunately, I didn't save the link and can't locate it via Google myself. I think the publisher posted the link here. Try WS Repeat Appointment - not much has changed (especially with recurrences) and it is most likely it will work. -- Bill R "cyndiwise notsowise" wrote in message ... Thanks for the suggestion.
