It is REALLY frustrating that Outlook will only allow recurring meetings to
be scheduled in fixed sequence patterns like every day, week month. The most
flexibility provided is the same day(s) of the week, on a weekly, or monthly
sequence. Why can't we just have the ability to randomly pick days from a
dropdown calendar, e.g.: This week Monday, next week Wednesday, the week
after, Friday, etc.?

Your saying I need to buy a third party software to fix this problem and
Microsoft is not going to fix it in updates?

It's difficult to say what Microsoft will do in the future, but I've not
seen any hint that MS plans to add non-regular recurrance handling to
Outlook. The third party tool isn't that expensive if it does what you need
it to do.
