Product(s): Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows
Version(s): WINDOWS:1.0,7.0; Win95:7.0

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows, versions 1.0, 7.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When a Microsoft Schedule+ 7.0 user accepts a meeting invitation sent by a
Schedule+ 1.0 user, the reply message has the following message attached to the
top of the meeting response message when read using version 3.x of Mail for
Windows:

  You are not this person's assistant.

NOTE: The message does not show if the message is read through the Schedule+ 1.0
messages box.

STATUS
======

This problem has nothing to do with delegates or assistants.

Schedule+ 1.0 expects that if there is a SentRepresenting property then the
person must have an assistant. For Meeting forms, MAPI messaging providers will
stamp the SentRepresenting property for all messages even if you do not have an
assistant. The message will be similar to the following:

Sent by: Johnny Lee, Sent Representing: Johnny Lee.

Schedule+ 1.0 sees the sent representing and determines that you have not set
yourself as your assistant and tells you.


MORE INFORMATION
================

The meeting is booked properly in version 7.0 and the acceptance response is
also recorded properly in version 1.0. Using the Schedule+ 1.0 viewer, things
appear as they should.

There should be no string displayed on the title of the response message.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem
------------------------------

1. Schedule+ 1.0 user sends a meeting request to a Schedule+ 7.0 user.

2. Schedule+ 7.0 user accepts it and replies to it.

3. Schedule+ 1.0 user open this response in the Mail for Windows 3.x client.

RESULTS: You receive the message mentioned in the SYPMTOMS section.
