When displaying the Calendar Day view in Outlook 2003, how can I get it to
display the day of the week (eg...Wednesday) next to the date ? I have a
book on how to use Outlook 2003 & it clearly shows the day displayed next to
the date (eg...Wednesday 30th March 2005) but I can't find any way of
selecting this option.
Thanks in advance - Mark

Thanks for that. Had a look at Control Panel,Regional & Language Options,
Customize, Date. Long date sample shows 30th March 2005 but no option to
show the day ?? or to tell Outlook to display the day of the week ??

In the same place (Control Panel,Regional & Language Options, Customize,
Date), make sure that the Long Date format is "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy", with the
dddd being the day of the week. Click Apply, OK and the when you click Apply
on the Regional & Language Options screen, Outlook will automatically change.
