Once again it appears that the programmers at Microsoft continue to think
that the rest of the world are just like them; either "Free" to be available
for meetings and sporting events or just "Busy" in their offices waiting for
the phone to ring.

99.99% of my appointments have always been "Out of the Office". This is one
setting that has been a real irritant for many years and it appears it will
remain this way for the rest of Microsofts existence.

The feedback on this has been ignored in the past and I guess it will
continue to be filed in the "round" file.

The default is Busy for timed appointments and Free for all-day events. This

When scheduling an appointment, the default "Show Time As" is Free. I would
like to change the default to "Busy". Can this be done?
