when I send a meeting request to someone outside our company some people receive it as a regular meeting request but others receive it as an attachment that they are not able to accept or drag to their calendar. Does anyone know why this happens? Thanks!
In Tools | Options | Calendar Options, make sure the box under Advanced Options that says "When sending meeting requests over the Internet, use iCalendar format" is checked. -- Jocelyn Fiorello *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "David" wrote: > when I send a meeting request to someone outside our company some people > receive it as a regular meeting request but others receive it as an > attachment that they are not able to accept or drag to their calendar.

Thanks Jocelyn, that works very well but the issue that I see is that since all the recipients are using exchange, why is it that some are getting it as attachments, I notice that even when the people that receive it as an attachment send me a meeting request it comes as an attachment too. Is there a setting on exchange that causes this?

Have you talked to your Exchange administrator about it? I'm not really an Exchange expert...if your admin can't help, you may want to repost just that question so someone better versed in Exchange can assist you. -- Jocelyn Fiorello *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "David" wrote: > Thanks Jocelyn, that works very well but the issue that I see is that since > all the recipients are using exchange, why is it that some are getting it as > attachments, I notice that even when the people that receive it as an > attachment send me a meeting request it comes as an attachment too.
