MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / November 2005Recurring meeting proposal scuttled by single booked resource
This must be a very common issue, but I could find no mention of a solution. If you try to set up a recurring meeting and a required resource (like a conference room) is already booked for even one of the instances, the meeting can not be proposed. How does one work around this? The PowerUser AAs create individual meetings when this happens (which would be most of the time.) Is there a better or more automatic way to handle this? Exchange 2003 server, Outlook 2002 & 2003 clients, W2k & WXP. If the resource is booked by another meeting, there is nothing you can do to include it in your recurrence.

Seems like that would be a serious ding against Outlook if it had been field tested by actual users. > If the resource is booked by another meeting, there is nothing you can do to > include it in your recurrence.

We can schedule the meeting, and the resource will send back a message with the dates listed that have conflicts. Then, we go back into the recurrence and change the room just for those dates. However, making more than three changes tends to make meetings disappear! > Seems like that would be a serious ding against Outlook if it had been field > tested by actual users.
