And I can verify that the below answer does not work. It changes the view on the screen, but when you print it, it changes back to printing Sunday last. I would love to know how to print Sunday first if anybody knows!

I am trying to print a Weekly calendar, and it prints Monday First, even though I have the display as Sunday First. I have all 7 days checked as well. This is really annoying as it throws me off a day.
It seems to me that no matter what I select as my start day, it prints with Monday first.

Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] - 09 Mar 2005 06:19 GMT Do you have your defined work week as Sunday through Saturday? Do you have your printing set up to use the 8 1/2 x 11 paper size? Are you using Memo style?

L.J. Sklenar - 29 Mar 2005 18:31 GMT Me, too. This "feature" of Outlook is really irritating. Yes, work week = Sun thru Sat; Yes, 8.5x11; No, NOT "Memo:" That's the whole point: we want the "Week" and the "Month" printed calendars (not the Memo calendar) to start the week with Sunday. I have to use Outlook, because my company's parent company wants all of its operating divisions to use Outlook (we just had to switch from user-friendly GroupWise). Does anyone at Microsoft ever look at these posts? It's really stupid to publish a product that forces a calendar to print something unlike what nearly all users have lived their entire lives with.

LaRue - 10 May 2005 18:59 GMT I have exactly the same problem as LJ. For three years I have tried every option. Now I have followed Milly's instructions exactly, checked and rechecked but cannot get the calendar to print with Sunday as the first day. Even though the page setup menu shows the seven day calendar it simply won't print as pictured! Anyone have anything to add?? Thanks F.L.

This is so stupid considering all calendars are printed starting with Sunday. It's useless I guess I have to stop using this calendar and go back to buying them or find another program. How stupid is Microsoft anyway? My calendar looks great on screen but I can't get it to print that way. What ever happened to the old print screen button? I tried the answer one person gave but that was to print by week. I need two pg/month.

Kidatply - 22 Jun 2005 19:23 GMT How to Print Sunday First in The Weekly Style The following steps, while not affecting display, allow you to print a week from your calendar with Sunday as the first day of the week and Saturday as the last day of the week. 1. Open your calendar and on the View menu, click Week. 2. On the View menu, point to Current View, and then click Customize Current View. 3. Click Other Settings, and then click to uncheck Compress weekend days. Click OK and OK to close all dialogs. 4. On the Tools menu, click Options, and under the Preferences tab, click Calendar Options. 5. Under Calendar work week make sure all seven days are checked, and then set the "First day of week" list to Sunday. Click Ok and OK to close all dialogs. 6. On the File menu, click Print. 7. In the Print style click Weekly Style, and then click Define Styles. 8. Check that the Weekly Style is selected in the list of print styles, and then click Edit. 9. Under Options set Arrange to Left to right, and then click to check Don't Print Weekends. Click OK and then Close to return to the Print dialog. 10. Click Print to print the current week with Sunday at the beginning of the week.
hope that helps

ScottD - 28 Sep 2005 14:32 GMT Ok...I followed the steps and it prints with Sunday first, but does not print Friday or Saturday. I have Sunday and Monday on one page and Tue, Wed, Thu on the next. I'm also having the problem of when I print my weekly calendar duplexed it doesn't insert a blank page on the first sheet to make the weeks line up facing each other. In other words, the first three days of the week print on the front of one sheet and the last four print on the back of that sheet rather than the next page so that in my organizer the week would show together rather than hacing to turn the page to see the rest of it.
Any help? Scott

DJD - 26 Oct 2005 22:40 GMT Some of us are talking past each other here. I am having the same problem as ScottD. The original question in this thread had to do with the MONTH calendar but the solution offered was for the WEEK calendar. I still need to know how to print the MONTH calendar with Sunday as the first day of the week and the Saturday and Sunday blocks being the same size as every other day of the week. Having a monthly calendar that prints Saturday and Sunday in compressed form is worthless to me. Any suggestions?

LMae - 11 Mar 2006 08:22 GMT Hi Scott, I have the same problem. I wonder if you found an answer. I believe that the trouble is because of using the 2 page layout. If I use a 1 page layout for the monthly I get all 7 days. The two page layout starts with Sunday (Thanks to the neat trick of not clicking print the weekends) but I am missing Thursday and Friday. Is there any good news from anyone?

Three of points. · In Outlook 2003, the second step has to go from View menu to Arrange By, before pointing to Current View · In Step 3, Compress weekend has to be un-checked in the Month area for the weekly calendar · In Step 9, yes, it's counter-intuitive to CHECK Don't Print Weekends, but that's what makes it work!

Lung - 02 Jun 2006 23:18 GMT Related questions which I don't think were answered in the many threads on this issue, but forgive me if I somehow missed it. 1) What if I just want to View the Weekly Calendar with Sunday First ... I have Outlook 2002? 2) In Weekly view, how do I make Sat/Sun same size as M-F? I have as many appointents on weekends as I do during the week.
BTW, I echo many of the other frustrated users. It's unbelievable that such a massive thread would be needed for what should be a simple fix. Can you believe the amount of steps required just to print out the Calendar the way you want it? Can you believe how irrational they've made the interface? These questions shouldn't even be on a thread. It just reiterates the logical conclusion that either: 1) The programmers are morons, or rather the people who oversee the programmers are morons, or 2) It's all part of the plan to create more peripheral business, and/or 3) Microsoft is not willing to take the small amount of time it takes to do it right the first time, thereby subjecting the masses to misery.
Regardless of the above, programmers should almost NEVER be the program interface designers, and program interface designers should be ANAL in their their attempts to make programs simple, logical, and flexible. If I wasn't stuck using this program or Microsoft Office (even though some features of Excel and Word are pretty good), because my company uses it, I wouldn't need to be in this forum writing this.

King Thanos - 19 Mar 2006 07:52 GMT Well I am not sure what to say. Except that the programers that wrote this need to go back to programing 101. i love that so many microsoft programs try to make to many descissions for you (just the way you don't want it) and then when you want to make a decission for yourself - they keep you from doing it (one way or another) thanks Kidatply - is I new where you were I would bring you a basket of delicous and exotic fruits!

Amazing Amazing! This worked! Thanks a million. Who would have thought by clicking this is would work! I am still amazed. Now I can print my own appointment book!
> How can I print a monthly calendar with 7 days, i.e. 7 columns, beginning > with Sunday? JonWard - 11 Mar 2006 13:26 GMT The problem is when you try to print the monthly calendar, portrait style on 8 1/2 x 11, 2-pages per month. This would give me something ike sun,mon,tues on one facing page and wed,thur,fri,sat on the next facing page. But when you select 2 pages per month it compresses the weekend no matter what you try.

The fix works for one page per day in monthly printing, but just as jonward writes, when selecting 2 page per month the weekends again are compressed. I think Microsoft does this on purpose, that way we have to buy Daytimers and Franklin coveys products if we want to use paper products.

Using all of the suggestions here i still haven't gotten outlook to print a two page monthly calendar beginning with Sunday w/o "compressing" weekends (I guess folks at Microsoft have no appointments or business on Sat. or Sun....must be nice). Anyhow, i have found a compromise although it might not work for everyone. If you print the ONE page monthly view on 11X17 paper, you can cut it and still fit it into a notebook. Of course, you have to have a printer capable of doing that...
Anyway... maybe outlook 2007 will "fix" this quirk. that's what it is all about isn't it? giving us reasons to keep buying the new releases...sigh.
> How can I print a monthly calendar with 7 days, i.e. 7 columns, beginning > with Sunday? cthill - 16 Nov 2006 15:26 GMT I agree. I uncheck the compress weekend days and I still get the weekends compressed when trying to print the 2 page/month lay out. If anyone figures this out, please let me know.
Also, when is Office 2007 being released for sure. I can't find anything, but sometime in 2007.
