OL97: New Appointment and Meeting Request Not Available
This article was previously published under Q174894
The Appointment and Meeting Request options are not available when viewed
from the Inbox folder in Microsoft Outlook 97. They are available when
viewed from the Calendar folder.
You are using Microsoft Schedule+ as your primary calendar.
Use Schedule+ to create appointments and meeting requests rather than
Outlook.
-or-
Remove the option to use Schedule+ as your primary calendar.
Choosing the option to use Schedule+ as your primary calendar in Outlook
places a button on the Outlook toolbar that starts Schedule+. This allows
all users in a mixed environment of Outlook and Schedule+ 95 and/or
Schedule+ 1.0, to exchange meeting request messages and share free/busy
status with each other. However, this option does not keep you from also
using the Outlook calendar.
WARNING: If you use both the Schedule+ and the Outlook calendar functions
on the same computer, appointments recorded by one are not viewable by the
other. The Schedule+ calendar option and the Outlook calendar option do not
use the same files.
Steps to Remove the Schedule+ Option
- In Outlook, click Options on the Tools menu.
- On the Calendar tab, click to clear the "Use Microsoft Schedule+ as my
primary calendar" check box and click OK.
Steps to Reproduce the Problem
- In Outlook, click Options on the Tools menu.
- On the Calendar tab, click to select the "Use Microsoft Schedule+ as my
primary calendar" check box and click OK.
- On the Inbox folder File menu, click New.
Result: The "Appointment" and "Meeting Request" options are not available.
