Irregular Appointments

So I want to put an appointment in my calendar. And repeat the same
appointment again and again - but at different times and on different days.
But
at the moment I can only repeat this appointment if it recurs at a
regular time - daily, weekly, monthly, etc.

There should be a a way for me to repeat it at irregular times and dates
without
having to type every thing up again and again. Even copy-and-pasting isn't
simple.

I understand there are third party tools that can be purchased in order to
do this, but I really think that for ease of use it should be part of
Calendar in the first place.

Thanks for reading and best wishes

Click to expand...

You could publish the appointment. Once published, it appears in your menu.
Then, just click on the menu item and a new appointment appears with all
your info already filled in, just change the date.
 
If it's a meeting that you are NOT inviting others to, you can do this:

Make the appoinment for it's first instance, then RIGHT mouse drag it to
each day you want to schedule it (do this on the Date Navigator or in the 31
month view). Release, COPY and then adjust it the the right time of day.
You can do a whole lot at once.
