I wouldlike to be able to enter the start and end date of employees'
vacations, and have the dates shown on Outlook excluding weekends.

The main reason for this is so that the correct number of vacation days are
shown - if the weekends are included, then the days are not correct.

Many thanks

I don't believe Outlook can do this. If you're scheduling, say, three
weeks, though, you could make one five-day event for Mon-Fri of one week and
set its recurrence to weekly for three weeks.

Yes, that's how I have resolved it so far. It's not ideal, as the vacations
show up as three separate events, rather than one.

Something for Microsoft - the ability to categorize an event as vacation so
that the weekends are excluded.

Many, many thanks for your help.
