I have a question regarding the recurring appointments feature in Outlook
calendar. I hope I can make it clear.
For example, one sets a recurring appointment, that one has a meeting with a
particular person every Wednesday at 9 AM. OK, easy to set that. Then, one
wants to add information to particular days, regarding what information you
want to cover in that specific meeting that day. I've figured that out also.
If you double-click on that meeting for that particular day, you get a
dialog box asking if you want to open the whole recurring appointment or
just that day. You choose the latter, and you can add info for just the
meeting that day.
My question is regarding later retrieval of this info. Of course one can go
to the specific day in the calendar, double-click on the meeting, and see
the info added to it. But what if one wants to call up all recurrences of
that meeting, to see the progression, what was discussed week to week? I
can't see how to do that. If, while in Calendar, I choose "Current View",
"Recurring Appointments", I will of course see that I have the recurring
meeting with so-and-so at Wednesday 9 AM. If I double-click on that, I don't
see the day-specific info, as that was added only for that day, not for the
recurrence. But what if I want to see each of those individual meetings,
organized together, rather than having to click on each individual day in
the calendar, to pick that meeting? Any way to bring up a list of that
recurring meeting, but show the date specific information of what was
covered each time?
A little complicated to explain. I hope someone understands the question,
and could help me with it.
