Recurring events and holidays

Hello,

Is there anyway to remove recurring events from specific holidays without
manually removing them individually?

Also, is there a way to set the calendar to ignore holidays as actual
workdays? For example, if I set a recurrence to fall on the 3rd workday of
the month, but that is a holiday, is there any way to have Outlook ignore the
3rd as a workday and recognize the next workday as the 3rd workday of the
month.

Thanks.

No, and no. You will need to configure each of these manually.

You can't do it automatically, but here is an easier way to delete them.

In your calendar, select View, Arrange By, Current View, Events. That gives
you a list of all of the events in your calendar. You can sort by categories
and then delete all the holidays.
