I have had the hardest time trying to find a solution to my problem. Any
help would be appreciated.

When I receive a Calendar appointment via e-mail, all I get is a bunch of
code. There is no way for me to add the appointment to my calendar. I am
using Microsoft Outlook 2000, and the sender is using 2002. Is that the
problem? Please help!! Thanks!!

Microsoft offers a hotfix for Outlook 2000 to improve its compatibility with iCal/vCal 2.0 meeting requests. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823199 . Alternatively, have Outlook 2002/2003 senders avoid using reminders in the meeting requests they send to Outlook 2000 recipients.
