When I accept a meeting request which conflicts with a meeting already in my
calendar I should be prompted.  The prompt tells me that in conflicts and I
get the option to accept or decline.  I am using Outlook 2003 and this is not
happening.  Any ideas people?

Did you set the Outlook Calendar planner options to not accept conflicting
or recurring meetings?

I realise you can set the options to automatically not accept conflicting
conflicts but I would rther be prompted first so that this is entirely
automatic.  This must be possible as it use to happen on my other PC.

Any ideas?
