There are several post for this problem now and I believe it is a MS bug. I
have an OEM version from Dell and they want $99 to resolve the problem, as I
was told. i decided not to pay and try my luck here. My next question would
be if so many people are having this problem how is MS notified so we can all
have a fix for it.

Hi Shawn, You are not alone. I have just installed Microsoft Office 2003
Basic Edition and am having the same problem. I can create an entry in the
Calendar ok but any changes to that appointment make it recur. As I use
Outlook extensively to manage my appointments this is causing me a great deal
of grief. Any suggestions or solutions will be gratefully received!

I am not sure if this is a setting or just an error in Outlook. I have
Outlook 2003 Professional with Business Contact Manager. The problem I have
is when I go into an appointment that I have already made or when I dismiss
the alert that pops up for that event the appointment automatically makes it
an recurring appointment when I don't even go into the recurrence area. Has
anyone else had this problem? I've re-installed Outlook twice, I've restored
my computer to its original state twice and it still happens. HELP PLEASE!!
