Default Monthly Calendar view, Background colour

In Outlook 2000, How can I change the colour of the background of certain
days, in Monthly view, say to highlight school holidays etc.
Cheers, Ken

You can't - Outlook 2000 does not support calendar coloring except in list
view.

That's not what I was hoping to hear! I just posted about color coding
categories in Office 2000. It's hard to believe that such a powerful program
can't colorcode. What is list view and how would I get that option to show
(or is it obvious once you are in list view?) If I go to View/current view,
'list' is not a choice.

Thanks.

Select any table view, categories being one of them.

Outlook 2002 and later can color code the calendar, but still not in the
manner you wish. You can color code the events, just not the background
color for the calendar.
