We have experienced this for years.  Scrolling up and then down again
within the calendar dates will display the "missing" appointments as
well.  After spending a lot of time researching this, I didn't find an
answer from Microsoft, just a lot of other frustrated people
experiencing the same problem. 

My unfortunate reply to our users has been, wait until we upgrade to
Outlook 2003 or scroll up and then down, or don't use the PF calendars.

Subject: Calendar in public folder - Cannot view some appointments with
Outlook 2000

I have a strange issue that I've been searching on for days, and I'm
hoping someone can assist.  We have a client who had an Exchange 5.5
server crash.  It's a small client, about 30 users and a 2GB private
database.  We installed a new version of Exchange on a different server
(same org and site names), exported data from the old backups and
imported back into the new server.  

Most everything works properly except for one nagging issue.  They have
a single public folder that is a calendar of events.  Their clients are
a mix of Windows 2000 and Windows XP, with Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003
installed respectively.  Outlook 2003 users can see all events in the
public folder calendar, but Outlook 2000 users only see about half of
them.  There is an event for every single day of the week, so with
Outlook 2003 all days show up as bold.  In Outlook 2000 some days are
bold, some aren't.

If I change the current view to something like Categories, I see 220
items from both Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003.  But when looking at them
through a calendar view, Outlook 2000 just doesn't see everything.  I
can highlight the public folder and using Outlook 2000 import the
calendar items in, and I see everything.  But if I move the mouse up to
something like Inbox and them come back to the Public Folder, I am again
missing half of them.  And if I make a new entry with Outlook 2000, then
leave the public folder and come back, I cannot see the new entry I just
created with Outlook 2000.

When comparing various entries in the calendar, there's no pattern that
I can find between what is visible and what isn't.  The default user has
REVIEWER rights, and a single person has OWNER rights.  They are
responsible for adding/deleting/editing all entries in this calendar.
I've changed the default rights to OWNER and this still doesn't resolve
the issue.

They are scheduled for an Exchange 2003 migration later this summer, but
I need a fix for this.  I'm hoping someone here has run into this and
can point me in the right direction.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!
