"for my information" calendar option in Outlook

[Guest]

When receiving a meeting invitation, I'd like the option to Decline a meeting
but still have it appear on my calendar. In some cases, I want to know a
particular meeting is occuring and it's location although I can't attend.
Today I accept it as Tentative so that it is still on my calendar, but this
may confuse others who attempt to schedule time with me, they see the time as
tentative when it really isn't.

Create a second calendar folder and use File>Copy to Folder to save it to
that other calendar. Then decline the meeting. It will still be in the
other folder. There is no way to decline a meeting and still have it show
on your main calendar.
