changing category color for one appointment in a series

I have reoccuring weekly appointments with clients...at times one appointment
will be cancelled. In 2003 I could change the category color/lable for the
single occurance within the series without changing the category color in the
whole series. IE: I could color code one Tuesday appointment as cancelled
without changing the following Tuesday appointments on the calendar for the
next 6 months. Is this still possible in 2007? When I try to do so...I get
a prompt that says I can only change category colors within the series.

Dana,

I was replicating this using our companies time sheet and came to this
conclusion. It seems if the meeting/schedule reoccurs, when you apply a
category color it replicates to all with in that category. meaning i have 5
names i color one of them red all of that persons name is red for each week.
I do notice that when i post a meeting i can cancel it but i can not apply a
color.
I'm looking through Rules to see if there is one specifically for your
inquiry.

No, you can't change the category on an individual item within a series -
this is the same behavior as in Outlook 2003.

You could change labels in Outlook 2003, but labels are not the same as
color categories.
