Does anyone know how to limit apointment reocurances for recources in
outlook/exchange?

The request is:
When making a recurring meeting request and booking a resource such as
a room (from the list in the GAL) we want to force the limit of
recurrance to say a month.
So users cant book a room every wednesday at noon forever, need to
limit the resouces to only accept recurring bookings for say a month.
Exchange 2000, office 2000, XP and 2003

Anyone?
Thanks in advance.

SUMMARY
This article describes how you can change the default setting for the number of appointment recurrences.
MORE INFORMATION
When you create a new calendar appointment and click the Recurrence button, the "Range of recurrence" defaults to "No end date." You can change the default to a number of days after which the default recurrence will end. When the user opens the recurrence dialog box, the end date will be the current date plus the number of days set.

Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
Use the following steps to change the default recurrence: 1. Click Start, and click Run.
2. In the Open box, type regedit.
