Outlook 2007 - Calendar

[Gail]

I posted this in the Outlook group over a week ago without any responses - I
thougth I would try it here.

----------------

I have Outlook 2007. A while ago I created a recurring meeting and am,
appropriately, the meeting organizer and attend most of the meetings.
However, when I will not be attending one of the meetings, I would like to
remove it from my personal calendar, even though the meeting will take place
without me, so that my calendar actually reflects the events I will be
participating in. In Outlook 2003 I was able to simply highlight the
meeting, delete it, and it was gone from my calendar but stayed on everyone
else's. I have not been able to discover a way to do this in Outlook 2007 -
Outlook now insists that the meeting stay on my calendar or be canceled.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

As I recall, that "ability" to delete the organizer created a bit of a
mess with "abandoned" entries on other peoples calendars. I suspect
that's why it has been "fixed".

Bob,

Thank you for your response.

I had a feeling it was probably something like that. Guess it's time to
put on the thinking cap to see if I can figure out some other clunky way to
once again have a calendar that not only shows me what I actually need to do
but also to be able to show others when I actually have time available.
Sigh ......
