MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / July 2007reoccuring appointments
How would I change the date of a reoccuring entry without changing the past occurances? You just go to it, open it (this occurence, not the series) and change it. I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

It's fully possible to change the times of one recurrance. I do it several times per month. Changing the series, however, will do exactly what you describe: regenerate the entire series so that past entries are also changed. A recurring event is only a single entry in the calendar from which Outlook calculates the individual dates on the fly and anything that modifies the entire series will cause Outlook to recalculate.  SignatureBrian Tillman I made a point of ensuring that it followed the suggested solution implicitly knowing that there is no undo function. If I had selected the series as suggested I don't believe that I would have lost all of the past entries. At this stage of the game it is now irrelevent as the old records are gone. I'd like to thank you and Judy for your help though. > > Unfortunately when I tried your solution it did exactly what I didn't > > want it to do.
