custom dates for repeating event

[Guest]

I want to create custom dates within an Outlook reoccurring event. I can do
it in Lotus Organizer, since it has a custom option under repeating events
where you can select individual dates for the repeating event. But I haven't
found any way to do it in Outlook, (2002), my preferred program. The reason
I'm doing this is that our schools follow a six day cycle, so the cycle
excludes weekends. And when there is a school holiday, the cycle day is
skipped. So I really need to make a reoccurring event with custom dates.
I've had to create the event in Organizer and import it into Outlook, which
is painful. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Outlook does not have the ability to do this but you can try WS Repeat
Appointments by websetters.com - it has a non-standard repeat appointment
scheduling system.
