Default Recurring Meetings for Random Dates

In Lotus Notes, we were able to set recurring meetings for random dates - not
specifically weekly, bi-weekly, etc., but perhaps the first Saturday of one
month, the third Saturday of another, and so on.

I miss this option in Outlook. There should be an Advanced tab where you
could enter specific dates for recurring meetings.

There doesn't appear to be a copy and paste feature in Outlook to do this
either. I can move a meeting, but not copy it to another date.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Default Recurring Meetings for Random Dates

All Outlook recurring items are based on a recurrence pattern. If your
pattern doesn't fit what's available you must either use alternate patterns
(every other week for one and something else for another) or just create
non-recurring patterns. You can't create a recurring pattern that isn't
available.
