How to invite NEW attendees to an appointment?

G

Guest

I have a recurring appointment already sent to a group of people. I would
like to invite a new group of people to add this appointment to their
calendar. How can I invite the new group without resending the message to
the old group?

Open the invitation (select the recurrence version) and add the people.
Close the item and when prompted, select the option to notify the new
attendees only.

In which "tab" should I be when adding the new attendees? Appointment,
Scheduling or Tracking? I ask because I never saw the prompt to notify new
attendees only.

What version of Outlook?

In addition to your version, you should be adding the names under the
scheduling tab. Once you have finished, use the option "send update." Once
you do, you will be presented with the option to notify all attendees or
only the new attendees.

Hi!

I also have a similar problem...

Where I work, we have the possibility to work in Terminal Service or
directly from the computer.

When I am in TS (which is not often), and I add an attendee to an existing
meeting, I get the 3 options for the meetin updates (send update to new or
deleted attendees, send update to all attendees or don't send update). This
is excellent and fine by me.

BUT... when I work directly from the computer, and do the exact same thing,
the message I get is something like (translated from French) : "You have
modified the meeting. Do you want to send this updated meeting to the
attendees now?" Choices : Yes, No, Cancel... If I choose Yes, then an update
is sent to all attendees... which is really not want I want because I will be
addind attendees often for the next couple of days... and I don't want to
bother everyone will all the updates.

Of course, meanwhile, I connect in TS and do the update there, but I would
really like to know if there is an option somewhere that we have to configure
to make everyone working the same way.

The Outlook version is 2002 SP3.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Unfortunately, I have the same problem as Martine, but I know it's because I
turned this dialog off! Now, I cannot find out where to turn the dialog on
again! My Outlook is 2003 sp 1.

TIA

I also have the problem that when I add a new attendee to a meeting (through
the tracking tab then hit "send update") in Outlook 2003 SP1, I am NOT
prompted to send the update only to new attendees. Instead I get the same
dialog box as Martine and the update goes to everyone. Like WJ can not find
a setting that fixes this.

Thanks to anyone with a suggestion,
JPM

Did anyone ever find a solution to this. I am having the same issue as JPM.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
