How do I resolve my email/calander issue?

[cbs@razzi]

I have Office 2000 Small Business Edition, and my other 3 co-workers have
Office 2003 Basic Edition. I receive calander meeting invitations in the
proper format, from 2 co-workers, but my Boss' never comes to me as a
calander meeting invitation. I believe I receive his as an email, in Mime
format. I have to create a new calendar event entry in my calander, for his.
The Icon next to the Subject, in my email, from my co-workers, is an
envelope & a person's head. With my Boss', it is just a regular email
envelope. I do not understand, with all three having the same Office
program, I only have this problem with my Boss. If anyone can help me out
here, it would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

Microsoft offers a hotfix for Outlook 2000 to improve its compatibility with iCal/vCal 2.0 meeting requests. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823199 . Alternatively, have Outlook 2002/2003 senders avoid using reminders in the meeting requests they send to Outlook 2000 recipients.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I believe I just found another
answer to my problem. I found an Office 2003 program disk, in my desk.
