No accept button for invitations

Hi I ahve a user that does not get an "accept" button on invitations ( you
have been invited to share my calendar) she gets the invitation the other
user sent...but alas there is no accept button
Any Ideas ?

Outlook versions on both ends? Exchange as the mail server?

Yes we use Exchange 5.5 and the invitor is WIN2k and the invitee is XP
Pro

This sounds like you're using Net Folders to share calendars, which makes
little sense in an Exchange environment, especially since Outlook 2002
doesn't support it. Show the users how to share their calendars directly by
setting permissions in the folder Properties dialog.

Thanks as always Sue...this department is headed by a lady that thinks all
her people are powerusers cause they have PC's at home...they come in and
start to develop/implement office solutions without a clue and then when
their frustration level hits the roof they call us systems folks in and tell
us to "fix this" because the have a perdetermined notion that something
must be broken or else what ever they were doing would be working.... we go
in and setp the permissions as we alwasy do and bam it all works....but they
still hate us.......sheesh
