This worked for me. I am using Outlook 2003 under Vista. I got the same error
message when trying to open recurrent meetings. Only under the Recurrence
view may I modify these meetings. I still can not open them under the regular
Day/Week view. Is this some kind of bug?

Repeat - show the calendar in recurrence view. The faulty recurrence should be obvious.
