The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server

This article was previously published under Q273297

SYMPTOMS

When you use Outlook Web Access (OWA) with Internet Explorer 5.x or an earlier version of a browser such as Internet Explorer 4.x or Netscape Navigator 4.x, and you create an appointment that occurs in the past, a warning message that alerts the user of the error is not displayed. However, when you use an Outlook client to create an appointment that occurs in the past, a warning message is displayed.

This issue may enable users to create appointments for past dates and times by accident.

WORKAROUND

To avoid creating appointments that occur in the past, verify that you have entered the correct date and time on the New Appointment form before you save the appointment.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server.
