There are times when I want/need to change the label and or free/busy status
on a number of events at the same time. Outlook only permits labels and "Show
time as" to be changed when creating or editing an event/appointment/meeting.
It should be possible to select multiple items and set these controls, just
as one can set the categories.

It's an inelegant solution, but it works. Thank you.
One hopes that a more direct means to perform these operations will be
created in the next version.
