I have problems reading the text under calender column
for past due items in MS Outlook Today ver 2002 SP2.
I am using the Standard Style for this page which
includes the 3 column "Calendar", "Task" and "Messages".

When the time has gone past the event due time event, ie:
past 8:00am, the text changes from black to a very light
beige, which I can't read unless I open the item.

I have the same problem reading the times for both the
past due items (which are also beige) and the items that
are in the future, which appear to be very light gray, in
the calender column.

My question is, can the text fonts be changed to
something darker to make it easier to read? I have not
been able to find how to make these changes.

Any help?

Thank you.

Alternatively also try:
Open your calendar.
(at top) Click on "TOOLS"
Click "Options"
Goto tab "Mail Format"
Second set of options on this page is Stationary &
Fonts... Choose "Fonts"

This will give you further additional options which should
help.

Good luck,

these are usually view settings - and normally Red for past due, not gray
but I think Outlook Today uses a style sheet.

What windows color scheme are you using?
