Outlook2000 calendar appointment colors

A

Andrew Howell

In the Outlook2000 calendar, is it possible to color-code the appointment
items? The default view of "Day/week/month" where the calendar appears as a
table containing appointment items, all I've got is gray appointments on a
gray or white background.

Ideally I'd like to color-code based on the appointment's category - e.g,
default=gray, "Work"=blue, "Holidays"=green, etc.

I'm VB fluent, so I'd even be willing to write a "Save As" macro that could
set the desired color?

Thanks,
Andrew.

No. That kind of color-coding was introduced in Outlook 2002. It doesn't
exist in Outlook 2000.

Only in a list view. Outlook 2002 and later support colors in the
day/week/month views.

Many thanks for the replies, guess it's time to upgrade anyway. As a
single-user, is it worth all the collaborative overhead to upgrade to
Office2003 or just 2002?
