MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / October 2005Mulitple invites to same attendee
When using a distribution list as invite list for a meeting or a single person on a reoccurring meeting, it will duplicate the invitees as they respond. This is a huge problem when needing to update because it will send to mulitple, not to mention it will not allow you to see their schedules plus it will count each thereby giving an invalid number of accepted/declined etc... Is there a patch? or a way to avoid this? "There are seldom technological solutions to behavioral problems." If a person is on a DL, do not invite them separately.

Where have I heard that before? :-) SignatureBrian Tillman They aren't invited separately, that's the problem. When they respond it comes back separately therefore if the item is updated it sends a duplicate invite, if I delete it the duplicate, it cancels the meeting altogether. Apparently Outlook is not equipped to handle a DL in an invite. > "There are seldom technological solutions to behavioral problems." > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > | giving an invalid number of accepted/declined etc... > | Is there a patch? or a way to avoid this? |
