SYMPTOMS

When you use the mouse to create an appointment in the Planner view that lasts longer than 24 hours, the appointment only lasts until 11:59 P.M. of the start date of the appointment. This problem occurs if you have only one day displayed in the Daily view.

CAUSE

When a single day is displayed in the Daily view, appointments created by using the mouse can only last from 00:00 to 24:00 of the day that is displayed.

This is by product design.

RESOLUTION

In the Planner view:
  • Select the time for the appointment, click the right mouse button, and then select New Appointment.

    -or-
  • Select the time and click Appointment on the Insert menu.

    -or-
  • Select the time and press CTRL+N.
In the Daily view:

On the View menu, click Number of Days. Choose the number of days the appointment is to span. Then switch to the Planner view and create the appointment.
