Is there a difference in your roles using Windows - e.g., local admin vs.
power user vs. user?

After furious head scratching, Mfoster asked:
| No he did not open the series. The resource booking was set up using
| the Outlook 2000 and later (Direct Booking) steps. I tried to
| duplicate the steps he took to schedule the meeting, which included.
|
| 1. picking the time of the meeting using my calendar
| 2. selecting the Scheduling Tab
| 3. selected the add others drop down list
| 4. selected add from address book
| 5. selected attendees and added them to the required list
| 6. selected the conference room and added as a Resource.
| 7. selected OK.
| 8. it populated the Free\busy time on the calendar view.
| 9. i selected a time period that i knew would have a conflict.
| 10. It told me that the conference room was already booked for that
| time and i would have to pick another time or resource. (this is
| what i expected).
|
| So i duplicated it again and made sure that i did not pick a time
| that was busy on the first time of the Recurrance, but I knew it
| would conflict with another time on the next occurance.
|
| It once again told me that i could not have the resource on one or
| more recurrances. choose another time or resource.
|
| I tried it again and this time i just picked randomly and it again
| told me the same thing. Just as expected.
|
| This is the problem. The user that uses the same steps I outlined
| above, does NOT get the report telling him to pick another time or
| resource. We are both using Outlook 2002 Sp3 and exchange 2000 Sp4.
|
| i hope this is enough info for you. if you need more info please ask
| and i will send whatever you may need.
