The update method results in duplicate calendar entries in Outlook 2002 (312269)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 SP4
- Microsoft Outlook 2002
This article was previously published under Q312269 SYMPTOMS After Microsoft Outlook 2002 receives a meeting request in
the Inbox, Outlook 2002 may create a duplicate calendar appointment. If a
Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) application calls GetAssociatedAppointment and places a meeting in your calendar first, and then you click
the meeting request in Outlook 2002 to open it, a duplicate appointment is
created. Outlook 2000 does not create duplicate appointments in this scenario.
CAUSE This problem can occur if CDO was not updated to reflect
the way that Outlook 2002 uses index PR_OWNER_APPT_ID to determine duplicate
appointments. RESOLUTIONA supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Only apply it to systems that are experiencing this specific problem. This hotfix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, we recommend that you wait for the next Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 service pack that contains this hotfix. To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the hotfix.

Blackberry.

processing the meeting request.
