Does anyone know how to get more than the standard 10 labels (and
colours)available under 'edit calendar lables' in Outlook 2002.

I would like around 20, and also to choose the colours myself.

Also, how to change the Calendar Month view to start with Sunday on
the left through to Saturday on the right, i.e. a full week on one
row rather than the weekend stuck at the end.

10 is the limit, and you can't change the colors.

To change the calendar display, choose View | Current View | Customize Current View \ Other Settings.

Sue,

Thanks for your reply. I went to "customise current view/other
settings" and the only relevent option was to not compress weekends,
which I currently don't anyway.

This setting still leaves Saturday & Sunday on the right of the display,
where I would like Sunday on the left, then MTWTF, and finally
Saturday on the right, thus showing a true calendar week in one row.

Any thoughts?

Shame about colours/labels - Outlook 2004 perhaps!

Rolf Mears.

Turning off "compress weekends" makes the monthly calendar show a Sunday - Saturday seven-day week.
