Outlook 2000 users can send meeting requests to other users. By sending a meeting request these appointments can be reviewed and then accepted or denied. If accepted the appointment will be placed on the calendar of both people involved automatically.

1. Log onto your Outlook 2000 account.
2. Go to the File menu and select New then Meeting Request. (see graphic below)
   
   
3. Click on the To button and select the name of the person you wish to send a meeting request to from the Global Address like you would any normal email. Type a subject and location for the meeting (this information will show up in the calendar so it is important). Select the date and time for the meeting, choose a reminder time if you wish, and write a message if desired. Click on the Send button when done. (see graphic below)
   
4. Your meeting request will now be sent. When the person receives the request they will be able to accept, decline, or make the meeting tentative. If the person accepts the meeting an email will be sent back to you and the meeting date and time will be placed on both calendars. If declined, an email will be sent stating that the meeting was declined and the date and time will not be put on your calendar.
   
5. If the person accepted a meeting and then later deletes it from their calendar you will get an email message stating that the person canceled your meeting.
