Outlook Calendar(prior to 2003) used to have the drag-and-
drop feature where you could drag an email message onto
the calendar icon and it would automatically open an
appointment dialog box with the email text in the notes
area of the appointment. My version of Outlook 2003 only
copies the email message header to the new appointment.
None of the message text copies across. Is this feature
lost or broken or is there an option setting to correct
this?
 
The way that I know works with this is if you right click on the email and choose "Move to Folder." Then choose Calender. A Move to Folder icon also appears in each email when you open it, and the icon appears in Outlook.
 
That sort of works. Instead of pasting the original
message text into the appointment I'm getting an icon
that opens up the original message. This is useless when
I synchronize the appointment to my PalmPilot. Thanks
anyway.

Seems to work fine for me. I am at SP-3 though.
