Question regarding "Create New Appointment with Business Contact"

[JPyle]

When I right click on a Business Contact and choose the option for a new
appointment I am presented with a Untitled Appointment screen to fill-in.
After I setup the date and time, invite the attendees, and such I then hit
Save & Close. BCM then presents a screen that indicates that the time and
attendees have changed and should it save the changes.

Since there have not been any changes why is BCM asking?
Each attendee receives two emails with the second one saying that there has
been a change.

Is there another way to do this to avoid this confusion?

 

[Lon Orenstein]

Yes, before you invite attendees, press CTL+S to save the appointment. Now
you can invite attendees and it doesn't give you the message or send two
invites.

HTH,
Lon

Thanks Lon,
It seems a bit illogical but it works. Is this a point that I should have
caught in your Dummies book?

 

[Lon Orenstein]

You know, I may not have figured that out when I did the book. I've been
using Invites a lot more now that we're on Exchange which we weren't last
year.

Glad it works for you!

Lon
