Calendar Views and Recurring Appointments - Re-post

[GlennK]

I have created a repeating appointment for each Monday. I then created a
view (via the Define Views... option) that filtered all appointments to ones
that started tomorrow (as today is a Monday). I did this by creating a
filter where the start date is on or before 'tomorrow' and the end date is on
or after 'tomorrow' (to get meetings that span more than one day). The
problem is that the recurring meeting appears in the view even though it
occurs each Monday.

Any thoughts?

What kind of view -- table or day/week/month?

Hi Sue,

It is a Card View at the moment, but that is just because of the original
that I cloned. It looks like it is reading the start date of the series as
the original date of the recurring appointment and the end date or the series
as the last, as opposed to looking at each occurrance. If I look at the SQL
tab of the filter of the view it reads as follows

(%tomorrow("urn:schemas:calendar:dtstart")% AND
("urn:schemas:calendar:dtstart" <= 'tomorrow' AND
"urn:schemas:calendar:dtend" >= 'tomorrow'))

Only a day/week/month view can be filtered to show individual recurrences accurately. Any other type of view can show only the master appointment.
