In Outlook 2007, are we limited to the default color set that is offered by
Category?

Is there a way to have unlimited colors?

For example: If I make green the Category for Contractors, I would like to
utilize a different shade of green to indicate each of the various types of
Contractors. I could use at least 25 shades of green.

Thanks,
Coach Mitch

Maybe this works for you: Assign two categories, one green for contractor
and a second one for the type. Then you have 25 colors for 25 types.
