CRM support for recurring appointments in Outlook

I am surprised that CRM 3.0 does not support recurring appointments created
in Outlook.

I attended the March CRM 3.0 launch event in St. Louis and heard that CRM
and Outlook where fully integrated.

Guess that was marketing hype.

This is dissapointing news for our sales reps.

I understand your need for this feature. The issue is CRM does not support
the idea of recurring appointments. Do you have a suggestion on how to do
this without creating the recurring appointments feature in CRM?

Thanks.

When we upgrade to 3.0, soo I hope, I am going to see if a workflow rule
might work. Otherwise there is no way to do it.
