Thanks all – these will get me started!

John,

Thanks! That got me thinking and I tweaked it a bit so the info is organized and presented with the option to paste it into the notes, and resources are ignored (since I’m looking for people, not the rooms which automatically warn if they’re not available when the invitation is sent). I’d also like to figure out how to format the text (bold, underlined) so it’s a bit more presentable. But this works pretty nicely as it is.
I tried to get a new menu item added to the Inspector but I’m unfamiliar with how that works. I’d like to add a button to one of the main toolbars on startup that would run the macro. I can get one in the explorer, but not the inspector.

Here’s my modification of your posting.

Thanks. I did that, and it works–sort of. The task is now uninterrupted, but it starts at 5 and runs until 11! I’ve changed the calendar just in case–from standard to none to one I’ve tweaked…same result.

I looked for help on the “elapsed” notation but didn’t find it. Can you recommend any websites with tips and tricks like this?
