Meetings show up in tasks and not on calendar

It is definitely going to her Tasks list. I sent her an invitation and then
went to her desk and watched what happened when she first opening the
invitation without responding, and then when she opened the invitation and
accepted.

In case I was mislead by the user, I had her send me a screen capture of her
calendar and her tasks list after I sent her a test meeting invitation and
she accepted the invitation. The accepted test meeting is not on her
calendar. It shows up, however, in a page that at the top has "To-Do List -
Microsoft Outlook." The page is divided into columns: Tasks; To-Do List; and
To-Do Bar. The current view is set to To-Do List, and the To-Do List includes
her tasks, tasks in her mailbox, and tasks in her active mailbox. The meeting
actually shows up on the To-Do-Bar. along with her other meetings for the
day--none of which show up on her calendar.

I keep thinking it has to be some setting the user has inadvertently
changed, but I can't figure out what it might be. I hope I've provided enough
information, but I'll be happy to provide more if it will help me resolve
this issue.

Thanks so much for any help you can give me.

Are you looking in the correct calendar? Is the view filtered?

Ok. so its in the to-do calendar list but not in the Day/Week/Month view -
we're seeing a lot of that lately, the result of syncing with PDAs, usually
iphone.

I'd reset the view to see if that’s it - if not, was the event sent from a
portable device or does the user sync with a device?

I'll try your suggestions--thank you for them--but the user does not use a
PDA, and the event was sent from a desktop computer, both of us within the
same office.

Once I've reset the view, I'll let you know whether it has solved the issue.

Thank you,
Pat
