Adding voting buttons to Calendar Event
Is there a way that I can send an Outlook Calendar Appointment and include
voting buttons? I send out invitations for luncheons where I want the item going to their calendar but I also want them to be able to make a choice of what they want to order for lunch. I can send a regular Outlook message with voting buttons but I have to send a seperate Calendar appointment to get it on their calendar. Too much confusion sending two. Does have an answer? -- Admin Madame |

No, that's not possible. The solution is the one you've already found -- send
two messages. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "Admin Madame" wrote: Is there a way that I can send an Outlook Calendar Appointment and include voting buttons?

There is another option.
Send the appointment item as an attachment in the e-mail and then include the voting buttons in the mail message. Instruct the users to double-click on the appointment item to add it to their calendar and then use the voting buttons to respond to the menu choices. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Milly, in that solution, original meeting organizer wouldn't get
acceptances/rejections, would they -- just the voting button responses? -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: There is another option.

If they send a meeting request, they would get acceptances. They would not
have a list of attendees on the appointment though - so they wouldn't see who hadn't accepted (or declined) yet. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.
