Re: CLue to duplicate appts.

[Kent White <kent.white@xxxxxxx>]

I have seen this in the past when the appointment was one in a series were I
deleted one in the middle and/or changed a key element of the remaining
appointments.  Since I have been very careful as to how I enter and then change
appointments in a series I have not had the problem reoccur.
