Can I undo changes to a calendar event after saving? Cathi 12/31/2008 2:10:00 PM I have a recurring event on my Outlook calendar (2007 professional). When I made changes to the recurring schedule all of my information from the past year which had been on the events disappeared. Is there any way to back up or undo changes after they have been made? [PS- the undo button won't work, I think the change has been saved.]

Re: Can I undo changes to a calendar event after saving? "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" <outlookmvp[ at ]msn.com> 12/31/2008 3:52:58 PM Do you have a backup of the calendar you can retrieve a copy of the event from? If not, you can't recover it. If you can recover it, export it to Excel and import the past events as individual items. (This is one reason I don't like recurring events for important appointments - they are fine for birthdays and such, just not for events I need to keep in my archive.) -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: dailytips-subscribe-request[ at ]lists.outlooktips.net EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQUEST[ at ]PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

Re: Can I undo changes to a calendar event after saving? Cathi 12/31/2008 6:07:01 PM Diane, Thank you very much for your reply! I am unsure if there is a backup, if there is it is on our server (this is a work computer) and we are waiting to hear from our 'IT guy.' There are 17 of us who use these same recurring events for what we call a weekly update. I am going to have everyone print out their old ones and start using individual events from now on. I really appreciate your advice. Cathi "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Do you have a backup of the calendar you can retrieve a copy of the event > from? If not, you can't recover it.
