Location not specified (Outlook 2007)
We're using office 2007 and exchange server 2003.
When I want to tell my peers I'm "out of the office", I make an appointment and invite attendees. When I click to send, I get this message: Outlook has detected the following: The location is not specified. Do you want to send the meeting anyway? Is there a way to prevent this popup? I don't want to tell them where I'm going. Perhaps we are not using Outlook correctly. I see other posts about "shared calendars". |

I don't want to tell them where I'm going. Why are you not enabling the Out of Office Assistant? If you want them to see you as out of the office if they want to schedule you in a meeting, add an entry to your own calendar that shows you're out of the office. When they try to schedule you, they'll see that, although they won't see where you are. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Thanks Diane. I can do that but it's a time waster.
What would out of the office assistant do? I can't find it on the program help index. I want people to know ahead of time I will not be available.

Is there any way to designate a default location or turn that prompt off all
together? I work from home and don't need that field - ever. It's a waste to have to enter it each time and/or reply to the "schedule meeting anyway" popup if I leave it blank.
