Defect in Creating Appointments in Outlook 2007

I thought this used to work in Outlook 2003, so it seems to be broken
in Outlook 2007. If I want to create an appointment that spans some
length of time, I thought I could click/drag to select that time in a
day, then right click and make the appointment. In OL2007 when I do
this, the selection resets and I have to reenter the timespan in the
appointment dialog.

Anybody else seen this - is it by design, or is this a bug? Is there an
official mechanism for filing bug reports?

Thanks,
-Chris
 
A good workaround is to click the New button once you have the date/times selected.
