MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / August 2007All Day Event Free/Busy Status
My last post on this issue was three months ago with no response, so I figured I'd give it another shot. I have two recurring all-day events on my calendar in OL2003. The events occur for four straight days every other week (basically my work schedule - I work Tues to Fri one week and Wed to Sat the next). In the options for the series, I set up the time to be marked as Busy, so that it will show up on monthly views of the calendar as a day containing an event. I do synch my calendar with ActiveSync to an IPAQ 1910 and back to another computer running OL2007. For some reason though, these two recurring events frequently lose their Busy status and revert back to Free time. I do not change the status at any time on either PC or my PocketPC. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Is there something I am doing that inadvertently changes the Busy status? Thanks, Merg  SignatureToday's problems don't worry me, I haven't solved yesterday's yet.

Linley Meslier Windows Mobile Training Specialist Pocket PC Mauritius Http://PocketpcMauritius.blogspot.com I can't say exactly when it occurs. Things will synch fine for a bit and then all of a sudden I'll notice that the all-day event is listed as Free Time. The machine with OL2007 used to have Outlook XP. This issue occurred back then too, although the second machine has always had Outlook 2003. I'll try to keep an eye of the issue to see exactly when the all-day event loses its "Busy" status. - Merg SignatureToday's problems don't worry me, I haven't solved yesterday's yet. > On Aug 23, 10:52 am, "The Merg" <howard_merg...@NOSPAM.themerg.net> > wrote: [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > Pocket PC Mauritius > Http://PocketpcMauritius.blogspot.com Okay. It happened again, kinda. I plugged my IPAQ into the charger and performed a synch on the computer with OL2007. Prior to putting the IPAQ in the charger, I checked the events on the IPAQ and they were listed as "Busy". After the synch, the events in OL2007 are listed as "Free", although the events on the IPAQ are still "Busy". I'm guessing that as soon as I tell the IPAQ to re-synch, it will be updated to show the events as "Free". Well, I had it re-synch and nothing changed on the IPAQ. I then even modified a simple calendar event in OL2007 and nothing changed on the IPAQ regarding the Busy/Free status. I then just went ahead and corrected the Busy/Free status in OL 2007. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Merg SignatureToday's problems don't worry me, I haven't solved yesterday's yet. >I can't say exactly when it occurs.

Linley Meslier Windows Mobile Training Specialist Pocket PC Mauritius Http://PocketpcMauritius.blogspot.com Okay. I checked the IPAQ and the computer with OL2003 prior to doing a synch. Both had the all-day events marked as Busy. I had it perform a synch and when done, both had the all-day events as Free. Any ideas please?
