I am trying to print a pocket calendar in a 2-page per month format, so that
the end result looks like a monthly appointment calendar.  With using a
Design Gallery calendar as a starting point, I cannot figure out how to split
the table, even if I ungroup it from the text box that contains the name of
the month.  I haven't been able to locate a template from Microsoft that I
can use.  I would appreciate ideas on how to "make it happen."  Thanks for
your help!

What size?
Create a new publication using a calendar template, select the yearly option,
ungroup, copy each month and paste into your pocket calendar file. You will have to
adjust the pasted object.

Mary,

Thanks for your reply.  I'm sorry it has taken so long to respond.  I tried
what you suggested, but I could not get the result I'm looking for.  My goal
is to create a folded booklet yearly calendar, with each month spanning two
pages when the booklet is open.  Sunday through Wednesday appear on the left
page, with Thursday through Saturday on the right.  It should look like a
basic appointment calendar.  The templates create a monthly calendar as a
table.  With my page setup as a booklet, how do I create a calendar for each
month without having to make lengthy edits to copy the monthly table, delete
columns, etc.  Outlook offers this as a printing option, but it is more
involved than I really need.  Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I assume you want to span two pages for each month.
Create the complete calendar in the landscape mode, do all your dates, insert your
images and whatever information you need to add.
Open another instance of Publisher, booklet page setup. You will have to add 24
additional pages for a total of 28...

This is the tricky part.

In the calendar publication, beginning with January, in the file menu, save as,
scroll down in the "files of type", save as a picture , any format will probably
work, although I haven't had too much luck with .wmf (Do not right click and save as
a picture).
In the booklet publication, insert the January image on page 2 and 3, copy and paste
a second January, align so the images are exactly on top of each other and fit the
space. Click on the top image, click the crop tool, crop right to the fold line, crop
the second image left to the fold line. You won't need to do this operation for the
center page (pages 14-15).
This is a roundabout way of doing what you want. Saving 12 images can be tedious.
