Using the GenerateItems()

I am using the GenerateItems to allow me to poplulate my occurences manually with data from a database and then load these items into the schedular. The default behavior of changing anything attribute on an item, is that once you do, the item's Recurrence State becomes an exception. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening? I am not having any problems displaying the items in the UI, but I would don't want items marked as exceptions that really are not exceptions, because I don't know how to trap real exceptions.

Thanks

Rick

If you want the occurrences of a particular recurring item to have different attributes than the master, then they *should* be marked as exceptions. If they are not marked, the next time they are generated (via GenerateItems) all their attributes will be copied from the master (i.e. the custom values will be lost).

If you want all items in a recurrence to have the same attributes, you specify those attributes for the master item.
