Prevent "Tentative" Option

[NewtoExpressionWeb]

Good Morning,

We have Exchange Server 2003 and mixed clients of Outlook 2003 and Outlook
2007. Using outlook to schedule appointments, is there a way to turn off the
option for invities to select "Tentative"? (I.E. force them to Accept or
Decline only.)

Thanks!

No. If everyone is internal, you may be able to use custom forms published
to the organizational forms library with code that either removes the option
or pops up a dialog telling them to choose accept or decline only.

Thanks, I had thought so; but was hoping MS had put in an option after all
these years.

The closest they got was the ability to not put tentative appointments on
the calendar - that requires Exchange 2007.
