Make all previous appointments private? - 14 Jan 2008 17:39 GMT
I have the exact question as the person below.  However, I cannot follow the
instructions.  Is it because I have a 2002 version of Outlook?

Yep - there's a way:

Turn on Advanced Toolbars, then show her Calendar in By Category View.

Now use the Field Chooser to add the Private Field.

Make one meeting Private (open it and check the box)

Now group by the Private Field. (just click the column header Private) or
turn on the Group By box and drag that field into it.

You should have that 1 meeting in the Private group and the rest in another
group.

Select the meetings which aren't Private and drag them to the Private Group.
Done.

Change the view back to Day/week/month.

I hope this helps!

go to the view menu, select a table view then customize current view. Add
the private field to the view and group by it. drag events from the private:
no group to the private: yes group.

when finished, reset the view
