Just wanted to drop a note of thanks; I am veteran Outlook user, and while still stuck in MSO2k, I find your tips useful and often applicable to my antiquated version (and am now anticipating getting 03). Thanks...

Thanks Charlie! I'll try to be more careful about mentioning which versions the tips apply to in the future, but sometimes I can't remember. I hope you enjoy Outlook 2003, I personally think it is a fantastic product, although it's possible I'm a wee bit biased.

Ahh, good one... Although I'm not going to change it, because I dislike receiving copies of the updated message in my RSS feed, and I suspect others do too. Thanks though! :-)

Is there any way to get Outlook to automatically color items based on there category? Most third-party PIMS for both the Palm OS and the PocketPC offer this feature.

Any way to produce a table view for todays calendar entries only.
Much like a single day in the week view?

The standard view is to cluttered when we have many items scheduled for the same time periods or in 15min incriments.

Jim: Yes, possible with automatic formatting via the View menu.

Derb - Create a table view via the view menu when in the calendar folder and use the Filter to say "Start: this week". I just tried that on my calendar and it shows me everything this week... It does also show my yearly recurring items and I don't know why, although I have some guesses. But hopefully that would at least give you what you are looking for.
