Keep Multiple Calendars Open by Default

[Realise]

Hi

The multiple calendar (overlay) feature in Outlook 2007 is brilliant
except for one thing... well two things actually.

Firstly - I can't seem to get the second calendar to stay open when I
close / reopen Outlook. This is really annoying because I am always
forgetting to select the little tick box to show our home calendar at
the same time as my main work one. The result is I often forget home
appointments. I know this sounds lame, but it just doesn't seem to be
intuitive for me to have to tick a tiny little box every time I open
the calendar.

Does anyone know a way (a registry hack or something?) to force both
my Calendars to stay open, with the main work one selected on top when
Outlook starts.

Secondly it would be good if you could select the colour you want for
each calendar. I know you can set up a colour scheme, but you can't
change the main default calendar colour, and anything after that just
goes in the order in the list (alphabetical?) rather than by Calendar
itself.

Any help on keeping two calendars open by default would be much
appreciated.

Thanks.

Andrew

See http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2005/20050307.htm for two utilities
that might help keep both calendars checked.

Current versions of Outlook do not support easily picking calendar colors.
