Set up a recurring appointment, every 6th business day

[CharlieTuneA]

I want to make an appointment recur every 6th business day.

I can make it recur every 8th calendar day, which kind of does it for me,
but if the appointment occurs on a Friday, then the next appointment should
be on the next Monday plus one, not on the following Saturday.

Is there any way to do this?

Thank you.

not within outlook directly. You can either make the events in Excel and
import or use a utility.

Set up 5 recurrences, one on Monday every 5 weeks, then skip to Tuesday
of the next week and set every 5 weeks, skip to Wed of the following
week................

Thank you Bob, good thinking. I think that will work for me.

Thank you Diane. I'll try Bob's suggestion first, and then if it doesn't
work, I'll come back to yours, which seems a bit more elegant, but complex
nevertheless.

You're welcome, have a great day!

Bob,

I tried it, and it works, except you have to set the recurrence for every 6
weeks, not every 5.

Thanks!

Correct, I miscounted, sorry!
