I am sending normal invites from my Office XP to a user on Office 2000. The
invites come acroos as a string of code or headers from the message. Any
advice on correcting this? Thanks,
GE

Outlook 2000 has a bug that requires a hotfix, for which I do not have the
KB article. Basically, receiving invites from later versions of Outlook
(2002, 2003) in Outlook 2000 when a reminder has been set causes the invite
to display as text. The simple fix is to not include a reminder when
sending to someone you know is using Outlook 2000.

Search http://groups.google.com for the KB article with the Hotfix - Sue
Mosher has posted it often. However, it is now after 11 PM here and I am
off to bed.
