When I create an appt for a meeting in outlook with exchange server, then
send invitations to the meeting to other users, the color labels that I put
with the meeting do not show up on their calendar.

Is this by design? If I'm creating the meeting, shouldn't all the meeting
appointments be the same?

This is by design. Red might equal Important on your machine, but on the recipient's machine Red might mean "love of my life."

That sounds like a likely scenario in a personal calendar, but for an office
it would be good to have centralized management. If I go to every calendar in
the office and set some automatic formatting, I'll be spending a lot of time,
then if there is a change in the formatting I must do it all over again.
