How do I get Active Appointments to show in Day/Week/Month view?

G

Guest

I am using Microsoft Outlook Small Business 2003. I had Microsoft Outlook
Professional 2000, but when these problems occured, I upgraded the version of
Outlook, and it was working fine until I typed in "DONE" into an appointment.
I have appointments on my calendar, and when I complete them, I type in
"done" so that I know it is completed. Starting yesterday, everytime I do
that, it deletes the recurring appointment, and is not viewable on any day in
the "Day/Week/Month" view. Outlook has not completely deleted it, because I
can see the appointments just fine in the "Active Appointments" view. In
summary, I am having a hard time with the Day/Week/Month view, and need some
help! Thank you!

Do you have a filter applied to that view?

No, it doesn't look like I have any filters applied to that view. Could it
be anything else?

Not really. The symptoms you describe all point to a filter. You might want to try creating a new view using the Day/Week/Month layout.

Sue,

pls see my posts in several threads re a similar problem;
by now I sincerely think that there is some obscure bug
in the outlook presentation module(s) handling the graphical
calendar view, introduced by one of the bug fixes distributed
round mid January.

I have so far not been able to create a graphical view showing
any of those 'hidden' appointments that are visible in tabular views.

The appointments in question are hidden in following presentations:

Day/Week/Month
Outlook today
The Scheduling graph within appointment details

And are visible in all tabular views (By Category, Active,
Recurring, ...)

I still fail to see any difference in the appointments
in question (perhaps via a hex dump of the calendar database? ;-)

Were you able to fix it at all, Walter?

I tried to create a new view using the Day/Week/Month layout, and I am
getting the same problem. Next to the "Filter..." button in "Customize View"
it says "Off", so there are no filters applied, right?

That's the obvious conclusion, I think.
Unless my conspiracy theory holds .. (the one suspecting the existence
of hidden properties and hidden filters only evaluated by day view ;-)

If you look at View->Arrange By->Current View->Customize Current
View->Filter->More Choices Tab, is anything active there?

Microsoft Outlook is now completely freaking out! My other applications are
not recognizing it as a MAPI...Any thoughts???
