Recurring event in calendar showing as a single event in list view

Question

I have a calendar with recurring events. When I try to create a view in list and using 'group by' month & year, it is not showing recurring items separately in each month category.

How can I get a list view to show all entries in the series with each day having different entries?

Answer 1

In SharePoint 2010, Recurring events will be stored only as a single item with a rule attached to show all recurrences in the calendar view or when the calendar is linked to Outlook.

The only way to have individual events out of a recurring event is to edit any single event in the calendar view and save them without modification. This will generate single events out of the recurring event.

The problem then is whenever you edit the series this events won't be part of the recurring event. The single events also won't be updated.
