As far as I can tell, Outlook 2003 doesn't allow basic control of the
date format in the header. I'd like today's date in the day and week
calendar views to be headed "Thur 5 July" but it seems I'm stuck with "05
Jul" because that's the way Microsoft fixes it.

I would like to suggest this as an enhancement in future versions of Outlook
- unless it's already there.

outlook uses the windows long date format in most places - so try adjusting
that.

Many thanks! I thought I had already set the Long Date to include the
weekday and omit the leading zero, but I hadn't. That seems to have fixed my
problem.

Best wishes
