I want do automatically default a category to a new appointment in Outlook
2007 calendar. I saw some instruction on how to do it in Outlook 2003 by
going to Forms/Design Form/Appointment tab and then set the category but this
option doesn't seem to be available in Outlook 2007.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.

It still works in outlook 2007. what happens when you double click on
tools, forms, Design Form, Appointment?

You need to turn on the Developer tab in the ribbon before you can design and
publish forms. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=35
