Unread items in calendar will not dissappear...
 
Hello,

I am trying to remove the Items that appear in my Calendar as Unread....
There is nothing in my calendar. I look through the different
views\catagories and I still can not see any "Items to remove".

I Right Click my mouse to selete "Mark All as Read", but this still does not
change. I still see 23 messages that are unread.


Any help would be gret....

Thanks

Michael

I'll need further information then:

1) Version of Outlook
2) E-mail environment (Exchange, POP3, etc.)
3) Any error messages, error numbers, anything from your application event
viewer (include EventID and source)
4) Any troubleshooting you have already done

Thanks!

Give the following a shot (these are not in any particular order, just things
to try):

1) Try opening Outlook with the /cleanfreebusy switch
2) While Outlook is closed, rename the outcmd.dat file

The outcmd.dat file is hidden. You have to unhide hidden folders and files in
Windows Explorer. Then just do a file/folder search for it. Make sure Outlook
is closed when you rename it. Choose something like outcmd.dat_old or
something similar.

Recreate the profile on the PC in question perhaps? Did you check any of the
other switches to see if they might help?
