I did a search and found that there is a 3rd party program for scheduling
variable reoccurring appointments in Outlook, but I'm wondering if anyone
knows of a free program? My company is not interested if we have to pay (a
mealy $15). I loved the way I could do it in Groupwise.

Or is there a way I can copy my appointment and paste it in new dates,
rather than having to create a new one each time?

thanks!
