This section answers some common questions about Schedule+.
No, but Mail does. You can create a message to invite attendees to a meeting and refer them to a separate Mail message that includes OLE objects and/or attachments.
To determine a meeting time, auto-pick only looks at weekdays (Monday–Friday) within the time defined by your start-work and end-work settings in the General Options command. Schedule+ looks only at the meeting initiator's settings to determine valid times. Schedule+ doesn't recognize the nonworking hours of other users, and you aren't able to define days other than Saturday or Sunday as nonworking days.
Schedule+ supports recurring appointments, but not recurring meetings. Schedule+ also doesn't support recurring meeting requests. Instead, you must request the meeting for a single occurrence and then remind the attendees to use the Recurring Appointment command to enter it for each week. Alternately, you can ask everyone attending your weekly meeting to set up their own recurring appointment for that time each week.

Schedule+ enables you to grant access privileges to other users with the Set Access Privileges command from the Options menu. Once you have assigned privileges to another user, that user can view your calendar while signed in under his or her own account by choosing Open Other's Appt. Book from the File menu.
The modify privilege is part of the set of privileges granted to your assistant. In addition to modifying privileges, the assistant can send meeting messages on your behalf by requesting a meeting while viewing your calendar. The assistant also receives meeting messages designated for you and can respond to them on your behalf.
You have the ability to specify either of the above. If you select General Options from the Options menu, you will see a check box that specifies Send Meeting Messages Only To My Assistant.
No. The Schedule+ Messages box and the Mail Inbox just provide two views of the same message. The message is only stored in one place. When you delete it from one view, it is deleted in the other view.
