Hi- I have Outlook 2000 and want to know how to configure
it so that at start up, the monthly calendar, with all my
appointments, shows up- any ideas?

Hi Chris--

Goto Tools --> Options --> Other --> Advanced Options... --
> under General settings you can select Calendar or
Outlook Today (both will give you what you want).

Thanks Crystal- However, from Tools, there is no "Options"
option- this is driving me crazy!!

I wonder if it is possible to use Outlook Express for
email, but use the Outlook calendar for appointments??
Doesn't that seem logical? Why am I having these problems?
I reinstalled my Windows 98SE disk with the Office
Professional 2000 disks as well!

Problem is, my c drive had to be restored from a hacking
incident. Now I have to somehow recreate what I had from
the beginning and I am losing patience. You would think
there is some kind of Outlook tutorial?

yes... you can use both. Set up outlook in nomail mode. See help, about for
the version and mode you're using.

My mode that I am running is normal mode. I go to views,
calendar and get the "we cannot find an email connection,
return to Windows Explorer and double click the mail icon
and create an email connection..." I don't want to. I
use Outlook Express for that. What I had before my crash
was the calendar in Outlook and I loved it!! It kept me
organized with all my appointments. Now, when I go into
Outlook, I get nothing, and some of the options to select
aren't "selectable" if you know what I mean, they are in
dim letters that cannot be clicked. What a hassle!

look on outlook's help, about menu and report back with the version and
mode - it will help us tell you how to get it like you want.
