Outlook's month view should highlight the ACTIVE date better

[Guest]

"Today": It is hard to see what day you are on in month view - could it be a
drastically different colour or have a bold box around it? perhaps we could
select the method of highlight while formatting the view. This would be very
helpful.

Mine highlights just fine - what system color scheme are you using in
Windows?

milly - thanks for the response!

i changed the color of the month calendar background several times, but
'today' is only highlighted in the same light orange bar across the top of
the day. the problem occurs when i highlight appointments with difft colours
to help catagorise my schedule at a glance - i think it blends in and looks
like one of the 11 label choices... i set it to purple as i think it shows
best on that - i just wish i could bold the outside of the box so it REALLY
stands out better.
