How can I show 35 day 24 hr reoccuring shift pattern in outlook?

[Guest]

I work a variable shift pattern which includes early, late and night duties
including week end working. The shift pattern repeats every 35 days. My
employer stipulates the day runs from 07:00 to 07:00 as opposed to 24:00 -
24:00. Is there any convenient method for me to show my shift pattern in the
calendar in Outlook 2007.

Outlook was not designed for shift work... While you can make one appt
repeat every 35 days (and will need one appt for each shift you work), you
can't change the day from midnight-to-midnight to begin and end at 7 am. If
having each shift spam 2 outlook days is not a problem, it will work, but
you'll need to make an appointment for each shift.

Outlook doesn't support variable shift patterns, although I think it should.
