1. is it possible to set a default appointment time other than what is in the
drop-down list -- I would like 45 minutes

2. Is it possible to change the category of one appointment in a recurring
appointment?

Default appointment time is based on the Time scale you select. 45
minutes isn't one of the options.

2. Is it possible to change the category of one appointment in a recurring
appointment?

No. Please remember that a "recurring appointment" is only one
appointment with a pattern.

No. Please remember that a "recurring appointment" is only one
appointment with a pattern.

But one can change other aspects of a single instance of a recurring
appointment. why not the category?

minutes isn't one of the options.

I know. I am asking if one can customize this --- perhaps in the registry?

Because that's just the way it is.

No. It's hard coded - you either get the times used on the time scale or 30
min. You can type the end time as 145 (no colon, no AM/PM) to make it
easier to enter, but you will need to think about what time is 45 min later.
If appointments are at x:00 to x:45, you can type 45m in the end field. (I
haven't figured out how to make that field add 45 to the start field - you
can add in the date field.)

No it is more like noting exceptions to the original appointment, AND
those "changes" get royally hosed if you change the original "series".
