How do you get Outlook to warn you about scheduling appointments that overlap when not using the Meeting Request? In previous versions Outlook would warn you if you manually book appointments that overlap or are next to each other. We don't know - provide more information, like your current Outlook version.

I use Outlook 2003 For example I booked an appointment for 10:00 on Tuesday of next week to go visit a client. A few days later our company banker phones and wants to book a meeting that overlaps the first. I was able to book the latter meeting without a notice that I had a conflict with the first.

How do I get Outlook to warn me? The only time I've seen this happen, is when one of the meetings has been set to "Free" instead of "Busy" in the "Show time as" field.

Tools->options->calendar options->planner options. Additionally, mark your time as either busy or out of office when you accept a meeting - this will update your free/busy and provide the conflict notice that you want.
