Can't add holidays in Outlook 2003.

[Paul S. Natanson]

Can't add holidays (for USA) in Outlook2003.



When I click on the ADD HOLIDAY'S button (for the USA) I get a message
saying: "Holidays for the United States are already installed" Do you want
to install them again?". (I always click NO.) But, when I look at my
calendar, I see no holidays.



This happens every January when I try install the holidays for the new year.
Every January, when I try to install the holidays for the new year, I always
get a message telling me that the holidays are already installed and asking
me if I want to install them again. I always click NO.



The only time that the installation actually worked as expected was the very
first time (when I had Outlook97). Since then, I have upgraded to
Outlook2000 and then to Outlook2003. But now I keep getting the message
telling me that the holidays are already installed even though I can't see
them on my calendar.



PS: When I arrange my calendar by "events", I see that the last holiday
event is in 2002. There are no holidays in my calendar after 2002.



So, my questions are:



1) Do I need to install (or reinstall) my holidays every year?



2) Why do I keep getting a message telling me that my holidays are already
installed when I see no holidays on my calendar beyond 2002.



3) How do I add holidays for 2004 and beyond without duplicating any entries
for previous years?
