I have a meeting appointment open in front of me.
On the status bar, underneath "Please respond", it says "1 instance of
this recurring appointment conflicts with another appointment on your
Calendar in the next 11 months.
How on earth am I supposed to find what the meeting conflicts with?
There's nothing in the help, no search function in the calendar view, no
information no help no clues and no options. I right-click on the status
bar but there's no pop-up menu. I've checked the "Tools" and "Actions"
menus, and there's nothing relating to conflicts there. I've searched the
help documentation, and there's absolutely no mention of how to find
conflicts. I clicked the "Calendar..." button, and it opens my calendar at
the first occurrence.
Are you seriously telling me I have to manually click on every tuesday
from now for the next eleven months and look to see if there's another
meeting there?
cheers,

Given the lack of response, I guess so. Words fail me. This is no mere
oversight, inadvertent omission, or wish-list feature. If the calendar
won't tell you where conflicts are, it's fundamentally useless. It suggests
Microsoft neither test nor attempt to use internally even the most basic
features of their software. Or perhaps they do, and that's why they're all
missing software test and quality control meetings all the time. It would
explain a lot, you have to admit ...
