show national holidays

[Guest]

I cannot see national holidays even though I have added them via calendar
options, add holidays

What version of Outlook are you using? Do they show up if you switch from
Day/Week/Month view to By Category view (look under the Holiday category)?

Thanks fro the reply.

Yes they do show if in view by category, holiday. But only show as a long
list with some holidays repeted and list stops at 2003. In fact with this
info I scrolled back to 2003 in day/week/month view and they do show, again
some appear to have multiple entry?

The holidays file that came with Outlook 2000 only included holidays through
the year 2002. Your choices are to either download and install an updated
holidays file (see http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/holidays.htm) or to just
extend the recurrence pattern of these holidays yourself, so you never have
to worry about getting updated holidays files in the future.

For Easter, and any other holidays that don't repeat in a simple pattern,
you'd have to check the Internet for future dates and just create these
holiday events manually. That's what I did. Here's a site to help you with
the Easter dates, at least: http://www.assa.org.au/edm.html

Sorry to tag on to this post, but I've also had trouble with getting my
Outlook holidays to appear on the calendar. I'm using Outlook 2003, and have
loaded the holidays as instructed on the Microsoft site, but they still don't
appear. They do show up in the category view though.

Any tips how to get them to appear on the day/week/month view?

Thanks.
