Functionality of schedulings in Calendar

I hardly use the thing so I have to come to you guys for assistance.

I have a user that says she used to schedule 'All Day Events' and people couldn't schedule meetings during those times.

I don't know how long this hasn't worked for her, but right now I can schedule an all day event and people can still schedule a meeting. Is there a way to block people from even sending invites, or at least getting warned, when submitting an invite during busy time?

Muchas Gracias,

I know that I scheduled an all day event for myself, and then had another user request a meeting and there was no prompt saying that I was busy. I think that for some of my users, the red bar isn't enough of an indication.

Checking for free time on onvites is a user preference. If it is off, it won't prompt.

Where do you set that? I'm scheduling a meeting and I don't see anywhere that I can set 'check free time'

I'm running 6.5 and there is no 'auto check for time conflicts' when I open my Calendar and then go to tools\calendar\basics
