Recurring appointments

Using OL2002

I need to make a calendar view in Table style that shows a list of Today's
Appointments sorted in order by Start time similar to what might appear in a
Month or Week view, for example.

Problem is that I can't get the recurring
appointments to behave. It seems that the Start value is the first date that
the Recurrence began and there is no way to find the start and end times for
today's occurrence of that appointment. Thus, in a table view, the recurring
appointments are all scattered based on their original start date and out of
order for today's schedule.

Furthermore, recurring appointments that do not even occur today are also
shown. For example, I have a recurring appointment that I created a few days
ago. It occurs every Saturday and Sunday with no end to the recurrence.
However, this appointment shows up in the above described table view every
day of the week--I'm assuming because it's start date is in the past and the
recurrence goes on into the future even though it is not set to occur today.

Is there any way to straighten this out?

Thanks.
 
This is a known issue. The table view does not show individual recurrences, only the original master appointment for a recurrence series.
