Calendar Invite included in an email

L

Lost in Excel

I am sure this can be done, but I am having differculty finding the answer.

I want to include a calendar invite in and email. When the individual clicks
on the invite, it will populate in their calendar.

The email is going to include two possible dinner dates, and by clicking on
the invite, it will go into their calendar for that date.

Any ideas?

Create meeting requests for the 2 events and send them both as an attachment
in an email message.

Yes I tried that, but for some reason, they are not populating in the
recipient's calendar, and they do not have a choice to "Accept" or "Decline".

I must be missing a step, could you spell it out for me?

use?

Diane, thanks for the response. Yes, all parties use Outlook, and we are
running MS Office 2003.

However, I have figured out my dilema. First I create the meeting, invite
attendees and then I go to "Actions", "Forward as iCalendar". This works
exactly as I wanted. I knew it was in here, I just wasn't finding it.

Thanks again, but now I am all set.
