Okay, many questions about Sat/Sun have come up, but nobody has answered the
question: How do you PRINT a month view calendar with 7 columns, Sun-Sat?
Unchecking compress weekends has no effect on the PRINTING, only on the view.
This has been a problem since 2000, has it been addressed and fixed?

What do you have set as your work week under the calendar options?

What version of Outlook are you using? If I use a Month view of the calendar
and select print, it prints with each day on its own grid, with Sunday being
the first day of the week.

What are you seeing?

I'm using Outlook 2003. But I forgot to mention that I'm trying to print the
2 pages/month calendar. The 1 page/month layout isn't big enough for all the
items in a day.

I don't see that option under Print. Can you be more specific?

Go to File, Page Setup. Click on monthly style. You have two options, one
page or two pages per month. I have my paper layout as portrait and I put my
calendars in a 3 ring binder. But it combines the 7th column (sat/sun
weekend) so you really only have 6 columns.

Ew! Ugly! So, I guess you cannot do this - I will pass it up the line as a
wish for Outlook 12.

:-( Bummer I was hoping you could help. At least I know it's not the user. I

would like to recommend Outlook to the soccer moms of the world, but we need
more Saturday space!!

Thanks for this post. I had posted the question below a mo. ago and did not
receive a reply so this is helpful. But it doesn't solve the problem. . .For
a different question I had someone suggested this "You can download a free
tool that will export your calendar to a Word Table. There are three that I
know of. Check out this website. They downloads are listed under Printing
Tools. http://www.slipstick.com/addins/calendar.htm" Does anyone know of
something similar--a Word template that allows the 2 page spread to have 7
columns without compressing the weekend? If so, I would be very grateful!!

My original post:
I figured out how to print the monthly view as a two-page spread but it
automatically compresses the weekend. I have the "uncompress weekends" box
checked and in the one page monthly view they aren't compressed, but for the
two page per month it seems to default to that. Since this is a church
calendar, weekends are very busy days for us and I need it to be a full day
and not compressed. Can anyone help me with this?
