Outlook 2007 Calendar Week View

[Guest]

My business will not be changing to Office 2007 unless you bring back the
'Week at a glance' block view for Outlook Calendar. In the new week view it
is not possible to see any whole day's appointments without scrolling as
there is huge wasteage of screen real estate by showing times without
appointments. I need a quick and simple view of a whole week and this just is
not possible if we have to scroll all over the place to check what
appointments there are.

Please re-think this - if Pocket Informant can produce a really useable
display for my MS Pocket PC surely it must be possible for MS Office 2007?

The calendar overlay made it difficult to keep the 7 day view. I'm not
expecting to see it return although they've gotten a number of complaints
about it, so time will tell if they can do something about it.

How did the 7 day view allow you to see all your appointments? Mine only had
room for two or three a day, max while the new week view set on 1 hour time
scale, lets me see everything. The 30 min view lets me see my work hours
once I position 7 am at the top of the window.

I think it's really a shame that the old-style two-column week view is no
longer possible. It was the only view I used. The current week view makes
inefficient use of viewing space. I suppose there's some advantage to
Outlook 2007, but I'm considering going back to 2003 just because of the
week-view issue.

- that's odd - on my screen I can see 4 events/appointments for each of the
compressed weekend days and up to 8 for the working week days - and that's
enough for my purposes...
