Title: Outlook calendar question
Post by: dazie on August 31, 2006, 11:53:32 AM
Is there a way to have Outlook automatically datestamp a calendar entry?

I maintain a set of calendars at work, but I'm not the only one who has write access.  I'd like to have Outlook put the creation date on each entry, so I can say "NO- you didn't add yours first"

just delete their record and add yours...  then lock the calender from changes.

To my knowledge you can only look at the date/time something was last modfied, which may or may not be when it was created.

I'm still looking at it.

you might check the view menu.  i think you can get a table view, then add a "creation time" field to the displayed fields.

i don't have a copy of outlook convenient to look at, though

Nobody.  I double booked a room and was trying to figure out who put the appointment there first.
