Using Outlook 2003, is there any way to prevent attendees from forwarding the
invitation I send them?  IT goes to others as if I sent it directly to them.  
I would not even know unless they accept or decline.  People show up at
confidentialy meetings.  Any help would be greatly appreciated

Why not ask them not to do that?  There's no way for Outlook to stop it.
You have a beghavioral problem, not a technological one.

That was what we have been doing.... in fact we went so far as to have people
sign confidentiality agreements.  Our company is over 700,000 people.. too
many just don't understand... in fact sometimes, they mean to only send as an
FYI... they didn't know that it sends the person an invitation.  Thank you
for your reply... you are right... behavior

This situation begs the question - has anyone every provided them with with
email ettiquette training or training in how to use Outlook?

If privacy concerns are an issue, the root cause (behaviour) should be
addressed, and not just by catching them doing it incorrectly.
