Outlook 2007. Love the overlay -- sortof. Is there a way to simply have
multiple calendars in that tabbed look without seeing the appts on all the
underlying calendars?

Um... I'm not sure of the value in showing a calendar without its
appointments - uncheck the calendar to remove it from the view if you don't
want to see its appointments.

I have 4 calendars. I don't necessarily need to see all the events on all 4
calendars simultaneously -- it's entirely too busy. Besides, not all the
items on 2 of the calendars are "appts" necessarily. So the idea that you
need to see potentially overlapping appts doesn't apply. However, being able
to simply click the tab on a calendar would be very handy. Side-by-side mode
makes the calendars too small to read anything on them so it's useless.

set the calendars into overlay mode then uncheck them on the left - when you
recheck them they should be overlaid.
