Calendar has disappeared from top of Outlook 2007 Nav pane

[Guest]

Hello - I've been running Outlook 2007 for months on multiple systems. On
only one of my computers, the calendar display has disappeared from the top
of the Navigation Pane when using Outlook Calendar. What I have there now is
the bold heading "Calendar", then the next item is "All Calendar Items" then
"My Calendars."

Normally, and on my other computers, multiple calendar months appear between
the bold "Calendar" heading and "All Calendar Items." I've looked everywhere
and can't find a way to get the calendar to re-appear. Any ideas? Thanks!

When the little thumbnail calendars (a.k.a the Date Navigator) aren't living
in the Navigation Pane on the left, they hang out in the Task Pad area on the
right. But over there they can lurk (fall, get pushed) off the screen.

Someone probably turned on the Task Pad, then mushed it over the side. Or
you can see the Task Pad, but it takes up the whole column.

If you don't need the Task Pad, you can turn it off on the View menu by
clicking the words "Task Pad" (it's an On/Off toggle). This will bring the
Date Navigator back to the left side in the Navigation Pane.

If you don't see the Task Pad on the right, but it's toggled On, hover your
mouse on the right border of the main Calendar view, until you get the
double-headed arrow, then click and drag to the left. This should make the
main area skinnier and show the Date Navigator and Task Pad.

If it's all Task Pad, do the same thing with the mouse, only this time drag
from the top down, because Date Navigator is always above the tasks.

Hope this helps.

I apologize, Loretta - I think I misunderstood your suggestion. I went back
and completely closed the "To Do Bar" and the calendar went back to where it
was and where I wanted it. I got confused between what you called the Task
Pad and what I called the To Do bar. At any rate, it worked and that's what
matters. Thanks again!

Sorry for the confusion, Mitchell. when I answered your post I was at work,
using Office 2003. I had forgotten that in 2007 the Task Pad is now called
the To-Do Bar. Glad you figured it out. ;c)
