I don't understand why this should be so difficult -

I'm trying to display multiple months on the left side of the calendar view.
I can get 2, but that's it.  All the buttons are minimized, as I read to do
in a previous post, but this doesn't help.

This stupid thing called "my calendars" is taking up 1/2 of the room, and
it's something I don't need.  But you can't get rid of it.  Sweet Job
Microsoft!

Anyone know a solution?

Thanks in advance
