I've been spending a lot of time looking at the meta-data associated with
calendar events, so I thought I'd share my method for reviewing that
information. It might help you to figure out how to distinguish your
appointments from your managers so you can assign colors appropriately.
#1 - If you are running Outlook 2007, you'll need to activate the Developer
tab.
#2 - Open one of your manager's calendar events (double-click on an entry in
your calendar that is a meeting for your manager)
#3 - If you are using Outlook 2003, click on | Tools | Forms | Design This
Form |
If you are using Outlook 2007 (and have the Developer tab displayed) click
on the Developer tab then Design This Form
#4 - Click on (All Fields) tab. Use the drop-down list to review all of the
meta-data associated with the appointment.
Once you've found a way to distinguish the appointments, you can use that to
build a rule for assigning color.
Hope this helps
