Viewing Category in the Appointment item

[Guest]

I used to use location to identify what is essentially the category of the
appointment; I switched to categories because the number of locations limit
is inadequte. The thing I liked about the location was that it showed up in
the appointment in a standard daily calendar view. Example
Appointment Subject: Project Management
Appointment Location: Project XXXX
Would result in the Appointment in the Calender reading:
Project Management - Project XXXX
Much more informative.

Does anyone know how I can get the category to display in a similar fashion?

Thanx in advance!

You'd have to copy the category to the location or subject field, either manually or with VBA or custom form code.
