MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / May 2008First Day of Week option
Please let me know the functional aspect of 'First day of week' option in MS Outlook. I want to know which functionalities of MS Outlook 2003 does this option affect. I have some idea that it affects Calendar view and Recurring Appointemnts. Please share more details.  SignatureVikrant Agarwal it sets the calendar week to begin on that day - i.e. if you prefer a mon -sun calendar you'll set Monday as the first day but if you prefer sun - sat layout, you'll set it for Sunday. I don't think it has anything to do with recurring appointments.

Please follow following steps to see how does 'first day of week' affects recurring appointments. Step 1. Set first day of week as sunday. Step 2. Create a weekly appointment with Recurring every 2 weeks. And, days as Sunday and Monday. Enable 'No End date' option. Step 3. Set first day of week as Monday. Repeat Step 2. Step 4. Open calendar in month view. Check for occurences for appointments created. Please look for change in pattern.

It works the recurrences going forward, not backwards, so if you want a sunday-monday pair, you need to start the recurrence on Sunday, otherwise it will be every other week, alternating on sunday and monday. or make it a 2 day event every other Sunday.
