SUMMARY
When using the Meeting Planner in Microsoft Outlook, you can invite others to a meeting by sending meeting requests that are automatically processed and placed on the attendees' calendars. Outlook does not have a feature that enables you to send a cancellation request that automatically removes a meeting appointment from the attendees' calendars.
MORE INFORMATION
To work around this, use either of the following methods:
Cancel and Recreate the Meeting
To cancel the meeting and then recreate the meeting without inviting any of the previous attendees you don't want to attend the meeting, use the
- In Outlook, click Calendar.
- Click the meeting you organized.
- On the File menu, point to Open and click Selected Items.
- On the Actions menu, click Cancel Meeting.
- Use the Meeting Planner to recreate the meeting the same way you created the original meeting, however, this time invite only those you want to attend.
Create a Visual Basic for Applications Solution
Create a custom solution for meeting requests that enables you to delete a meeting from another user's calendar.
