I just installed Outlook 2007 and the calendar items that I invite other
attendees to are showing up with my name on them (actually my "displayed
name" from my email address). My name is also printing out on the weekly
calendar. Is this because I'm the scheduler of the appointment. Hey, I'm a
Mom and my calendar is for my family and their appointments and I don't need
that piece of info on the calendar items (too much visual clutter). Is there
any way I can get my name off? I have found if I type in a location my name
will go away or if I type in blanks in the location my name will go away;
unless it's a long scheduled item (e.g. Spring vacation that spans several
days) and my name still shows up. Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

its because you are the scheduler and you can't turn it off. You'll need to
use a utility to print the calendar, many of which do a much better job.

needs.

Diane:

relatedly, i am having trouble in Outlook making a schedule that
comprehensively includes both my children's and my own activities. i admit
this may be a basic misunderstanding of how Outlook works now.

what i'm failing to understand is as rudimentary as scheduling a recurring
meeting for my daughter's dance lessons and have HER, not me, as the
attendee! (and many variations thereon)

ideas? suggestions? pointers for where i should look to RTFM ~ this may just
be a terminology/jargon issue; i've tried hunting this down in help, but i've
not had success, obviously.

thanks!
