APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Exchange 2000 Enterprise Server

This article was previously published under Q314606





SYMPTOMS
In the following scenario, duplicate attachments may be created:
 * A user (for this example, User A) uses Microsoft Outlook to send a recurring meeting request to another user (for this example, User B) with an attachment (attachment 1).
 * User B uses Outlook to accept this meeting.
 * User A uses Outlook to edit an occurrence of the meeting, and replaces attachment 1 with another attachment (attachment 2).
 * User A uses Outlook to send an updated meeting request to User B.
 * Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) code is run against User B's Inbox. The Inbox receives the meeting request, calls GetAssociatedAppointment, and then calls Update on the appointment.
 * When user B opens the User B Calendar in Outlook, all of the occurrences of the appointment contain both attachments.

In the fifth step in the preceding scenario, if User B uses Outlook to open the Inbox and accept the updated meeting request instead of Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) code running against User B's Inbox, the one edited occurrence contains attachment 2 only, and the other occurrences contain attachment 1 only. CDO should work the same way.
