When sending an e-mail in Microsoft Outlook, it is possible in delivery options, to time delay the sending of an e-mail....all pretty straight forward stuff.

But is the same option also available when sending a meeting request??

If it is i can nor seem to work out how to do it..

Any help would be much appreciated and will result in greens for the solution

Piece of wee mate. Do it in your calendar - right click and select new appointment.

Sending e-mails you can time delay them so why not meeting requests??

Did you read the first post mate or are you on the sauce this early!!!

As far as I know you can't I'm afraid. Use Outlook all the time and have never seen the option to delay a calendar invite. Also had a quick look on the net and couldn't find any info about it.

Are you trying to impress the attendee's by sending it ridiculously late at night, so they think you are still in the office slaving away long after they have all gone home? :)

Hmm, you've got me thinking now. Bet I could write a program in VB that will allow you to do this via ODBC....

well......IMO, I would like this done ASAP because IIRC, i have only got 10 more mins worth left on my car in the NCP. And i would hate my boss to think that i had gone AWOL as he is a big fan of FIFO and will send me to HR and i have not yet picked up my BLT from the shop yet, which i am supposed to be getting it FOC.

Ow and BTW.........can you stop using these stupid bloody Acronyms please??

Luddite. VB = Visual Basic and ODBC = Open Database Connectivity.

Should it not be ODC.....or is Database not one word??

No David it's not. One of those strange nerdy PC words like GNU which stands for GNU's Not Unix.......

And you wouldn't want to get muddled up with Orthogonal Defect Classification, or these days Offshore Development Centre...

The earliest known use of the term data base was in November 1963, when the System Development Corporation sponsored a symposium under the title Development and Management of a Computer-centered Data Base[1]. Database as a single word became common in Europe in the early 1970s and by the end of the decade it was being used in major American newspapers. (The abbreviation DB, however, survives.)






As he fallen asleep yet?? Probably cause the post count to drop slightly and give the server's CPU a rest. :p

IMO.....the Acronym DB is the best Acronym currently available today!
