Default How to keep Calendar in 'monthly' view instead of 'list' view ???

Would prefer regular 30 day 'monthly' calendar view but sometimes Outlook2003
'slips' into 'list' calendar view and there seems to be no quick way to get
it back to the 'monthly' view and keep it there.
Ideas ???

the quick way to change Vuews is the Current View Window. It's on the
Advanced Toolbar in most versions.

Judy
Thanks very much for the reply and info.
I may have 'customized' that option off my toolbars menu, but have returned
it and looks like that is most of the answer.
Would like to find a way to make the monthly view the default, but at least
your answer looks like the best alternative 'workaround' to that.
Thanks again for your help.

its usually the default - if you don’t use many custom views try resetting
all views by starting outlook with the /cleanviews switch. It will wipe out
all custom views.

Default How to keep Calendar in 'monthly' view instead of 'list' view

Thank you for the reply !
Not that familiar with 'custom views', but dont think I have any, is there
any place to check in Outlook and/or the registry ?
When at the 'Calendar' and click on View menu, point to Arrange By, point to
Current View, and then click Define Views, seems like the 8 calender view
names are all pretty standard and some are month and some are table for
calendar folders with the current view settings for all calendar folders as
'day/week/month' view type.
Would I need to go in and reset this table (and others) after running
/cleanviews ?

/cleanviews will reset it - you won't need to do anything.

Default How to keep Calendar in 'monthly' view instead of 'list' view

This didn't seem to help me. Maybe This is not the same problem for which I
am seeking a solution.

First of all, I am using Outlook 2007 in a 64-bit Windows 7 environment.

When I start Outlook I have it set to open to the Outlook today page.
Whever I switch to look at my calendar it always opens (the first time) to
the "today" view. Subsequent openings will go to the view that was last
displayed. I almost never use the Today or the Weekly views. I want it to
open to the Monthly view. In my previous version (2002 I believe) whichever
view was used last is the one that would open the next time, EVEN after
closing and reopening Outlook.

Can this be done?
