change recurring task going forward, but keep all past occurances

**Robyn Hanson** · May 15th 06, 01:59 AM posted to microsoft.public.outlook.calendaring

When I delete a recurring appointment from my calendar (MS Outlook 2003), it
deletes all of the past occurances as well as the future ones. I would like
to have the option of retaining the past appointments as a record of my time
spent. Is there a way to set this option?

That's because recurring items are single items, not multiple ones. The
multiple appearances are calculated on the fly.

appointments as a record of my time spent. Is there a way to set this
option?

Try specifying an end date on the recurrence.
