Meeting Request Date and Time Issues

[Neteffect]

When users send out meeting requests to single, multiple, or dist list, the
meeting request will come through but instead of having the proper date it
changes them to the current date and time. This happens even if meeting
requests are set to occur 3-4 months in the future.

As soon as the end user gets the request and checks the date it's changed
back to the current day and time.

Try resetting the view.

I reset the display on two different machines and then after reopening
Outlook on both machines, I resent a meeting request (new request) for two
months in the future and the other person received the request, but it was
still dated as the current day. The resolution did not seem to work. Do you
have other suggestions?

Clear the forms cache.
First thing I would try is to clean up the forms cache.

To do so, follow these steps:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the Other tab, and then click Advanced Options.
3. Click Custom Forms.
4. Click Manage Forms.
5. Click Clear Cache.
6. Close all open windows, and then restart Outlook 2003.

If the above does not work, try the following.

Deleting the Forms Cache File:
The Frmcache.dat file is the primary file to delete. The Frmcache.dat
file serves as an index of the individual forms that have been cached
on the computer. Use the following steps to manually delete the
Frmcache.dat file. In addition, these steps delete all of the cached
forms on your computer, which are stored in subfolders of the
Forms folder.

1.. Quit Outlook.
2.. Search the Hard drive (<F3>) to locate the Frmcache.dat file.
(Be sure to check in HIDDEN files on W2K or WXP.)
3.. Delete all that are found from the FIND window.
4.. Open Outlook.

When you restart Outlook, and use a form, the forms cache
is re-created.
