Default Reappearing recurring meetings

Sorry to be so slow in responding but I'm going through hell trying
to post to the MS community websites. Most often when I click on the
reply button, the screen will refresh and I do NOT see the window
where I can type my post. I'm have this problem on three different
computers (another problem, eeeeeeeee).

I saw your previous post about deleting the entries and have done
this MANY times. Within a couple of hours the entry will start
reappearing. If I do nothing after a few days I will have several
reoucrrances of the same entry. The other day when I deleted I had
about 70 repeats of the same entry that I've deleted numerous times.

Regarding your suggestion " I may suggest (not sure if you've already
knew or tried this), select the Calendar, goto View, Arrange By,
Category. Organize them by date or topic and find the offending ones.
" Yes this is what I have done many times but after a few hours (2-3)
it reappears and will continue to add itself again and again and
again.

I currenlty have two meetings that I have deleted numerous times and
they continue to come back and add itself over and over. One meeting
was for five consecutive days (Monday through Friday from 0800 to
1500 hours). I use the 24 hour clock. I created the entry and I
copied one other person on the entry. The second meeting is very
similar and the only difference it is for four consecutive Saturdays.

If you want I'd be willing to copy you on the entry and possibly you
can see something that I cannot. Or if you want I can capture any
images or system states you want, I just need detail instructions. I
can either send you the info you need or create an ID on my FTP
server.

Other than the entries are still in the future (5/19-523 and
7/12-8-2) and I continue to see them. This is anoying I'm concerned
that if I don't remove them from Outlook at some point I will have
some super large number of entries for these two appointments and
Outlook will hit some darn limit and crash.


Under the Recurrence field (in category view), did this meeting that you
tried to delete and keeps coming back, indicate it is a recurring meeting,
as well as a start date and end date? If so, and you deleted that line item
or entry, it should go away.

Are there delegates involved?

You can email me at my . (no spaces in my email
address).
