Adding the From field to a meeting invitation

[kiwisheree]

I have created some template outlook invitations for regular events. I have
saved them as oft files.

I now need to send them out from a secondary outlook account that I have
access to.

When I open the template invitation it automatically sends it from my
personal calendar. Is there a way to add the from field as you can with an
email so it sends from the secondary mail box.

I have outlook 2007.

Thanks

No, you can't add that field. If the other account is configured as an
Account you can select it and send from it.

Are you a delegate of the other mailbox?

I assume I am a delegate. I had to ask for permission to view and send emails
from mailbox. It has been added to my outlook as another mailbox.

So if I open the outlook template how do I tell outlook to send it from the
second account? Do I actually have to create the entry in the calendar of the
second mail box which would mean I had to enter the content every time? So
then my oft files would be a waste of time?
