Reminder tiime not the same for invite attendees

[mjp]

Have two vista ultimate machines both with Office 2007 sp2.

I use the "invite Attendees" quite a bit when I set meetings up. What I
notice is that if I put a reminder tiime of say "1 hour". Then after the
other user acceptes my invitation to that meeting, their "reminder time" is
set to 15 minutes. My machine defaulit "reminder tiime" is 1 hour. The
other user's machine "default reminder" time is 45 minutes.
I had the other user invite me to an apointment, and my Outlook did the same
thing after they gave me a 45 minute reminder. My calendar reminder was 15
minutes. I know you can change this when you accept the appointment, but it
is a pain when you do it alot.

Any answers to this one would be greatly apprieciated.

Thanks..

There is a similar bug (and a fix) for this with Exchange server 2007 - but
none that I am aware of for Outlook.

Thanks for the answer. Hopefully this will be passed along to Microsft.
