Reccuring Event will not be deleted

Post by poet-man »

Hi there,

using 6.09, I have a problem, which might even be there with earlier versions.

I have a recurring event, which I want to delete. It was created some time ago.
Tabbing on delete, EPIM of course asks me, what I want to delete. I choose "current event and all future reccurances".
As a result EPIM will delete current event only!
Trying this with another recurring event, this will be the same.

Can anybody confirm?

Thanks

We're unable to reproduce this. If you choose another option, like "The entire series" when deleting recurring event, will it make any difference?

You're right ... new recurring events are not effected. Old ones ARE!
No difference in creation process.
So possibly a change in program somewhen?

Thanks for checking.
Meanwhile I have deleted all recurring events, which was fairly easy, as all those events ended at end of year, so this should "solve" the problem.
