Recurring Tasks That Are Marked Complete Never Reoccur (282963)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mobile Information 2001 Server

This article was previously published under Q282963

SYMPTOMS

When you use a mobile device with Mobile Information Server, if you mark a recurring task as Complete, the entire series is deleted. When you use Microsoft Outlook, the task reappears on the task list at the next designated recurrence; however, when you use Microsoft Outlook Mobile Access, the task is marked as Done and does not recur.

CAUSE

This problem can occur because Outlook Mobile Access cannot determine that the task is recurring and treats all tasks as single one-time tasks.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, do not mark recurring tasks as Complete when you use Outlook Mobile Access.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2001.
