Well, I tried deleting the ost's, I tried singing "I feel pretty", I even did a tap dance. NO DICE!!! Same error message when she posts new appointments. But I must admit, the end user is now avoiding me. Maybe that's a good thing.... :)
Any other ideas???

If it doesn't work, sing "I feel pretty" with great fervor. This will not solve the problem, but it will distract the end-user. -----Original Message----- From: Edwards, Aaron [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 10:06 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Unable to update public free/busy data error in Outlook I tried running the /cleanfreebusy switch on the user and when outlook loads, it pops up with a "Unable to clean free/busy information" error message.
