When you forward a calendar item (by right-clicking it, and selecting
Forward) to someone, shouldn't that person be able to open that attachment,
do a "save and close", and it get posted to their calendar?

If that is wat it is suppose to do, then why would the attachemnt not save
for us? We want it to update the recipiants calendar.

We are running office 2003 on both PC's, and when I open the attachment, it
looks good, but doesn't save to my calendar.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Rob
 
I was having the same problem as Rob except when I receive calendar items I can save & close the item directly into my calendar. It is when I send it to my other computer that they cannot save & close. Your suggestion of dragging it to the calendar worked but why won't the save & close feature work. Could it be an options or set up feature?
 
It all depends on what you're actually sending. If you use the Forward as
vCal (iCal) command, the user will be able to Save and Close the vCal/iCal
attached file. If instead you use the simple Forward to send an Outlook
item, the user will need to drag the item into the Calendar folder.
