Any reason why all the US holidays don't show in my calendar.

Here's my settings.

Tools/Options/Calendar Options.../Add Holidays.../United States is checked

Okay, so where else am I suppose to look so all my US holidays showed up in
my calendar.

P.S.
I'm starting to feel that Microsoft's products are goind down hill, at least
for Office 2007, Vista, and Visual Studio 2008. I have all three of this
products and they have to much problems (bugs).

Outlook 2007 includes the new holidays list, so they should show up when you
click Add. If not, try resetting the view.

Outlook does not 'automatically' add the holidays and older versions stopped
at 2007 (or earlier) so they do need to be added to Outlook to show.

The US Holiday is already checked and if I add it again, it prompts me a
popup box that says:

"Holidays for United States are already installed. Do you want to install
them again?"

If you display your calendar in the By Category view, do you see a Holidays
category? If so, and you expand that category, what do you see?
