Sending meeting request as an attachment

[ajorbre12]

How do I create a meeting request, save it, and then attach it to an email
message? I have tried to do this but when the user opens the attachment,
there are no options to Accept/Decline, just to reply.

cant you go into "sent items"

and just forward that meeting request to the user?

or do you want to do something else?

Nope. I actually want to do something else. I want to create the invite, save
it and then create an email message in which I can embed the invite as an
attachment. A good example would be if I were offering 3 sessions for one
training, I could attach all 3 options and they would open and accept the one
they will attend.

I thought with Outlook 2003, I could create it with myself as the sender and
recipient, and save it as an .ics file on my desktop. Then in the email
message, use Attach File. Now when I do it with 2007, there are no
Accept/Decline buttons.

I'm also interested in how to do this! Right now, I send out the sessions and
use the voting buttons for people tell me which session they want to attend
and then I go into the calendar and send a meeting invitation to them. It's
combersome to do it this way, so I'm interested in the solution, as well.
