No! That is highly unlikely to fix it. A new profile will, but that can
introduce other problems. You'e better off learning how to find the menus
and fix it.

http://www.xsolive.com/Outlook%20Scr...odooptions.png - this has
two screenshots - one for the tasks, one for to-do options. I added the blue
dots, red and green circles to the screenshot to highlight where you should
be right clicking (blue dot in red circle) and the command you need once the
menu is open.

Ok, when I log into another computer I get the normal one thumbnail
calendar.
So am assuming my outlook profile, or user profile on my computer needs to
be
rebuilt.

I did what I was asked to do: "Right-click the TaskPad's header line,

Current View, click Other Settings, and check the box labeled "Show 'new
item' row"

As I am not familiar with TaskPad I don't know what "row of field names"
is.

Did you right click on the row of field names in the taskpad and choose
customize, then other settings?

Thank you very much for the help Diane, however I had already done the
Customize Current View portion. I included an image (named Outlook 2003
TaskPad - Other Settings) to show that it was already checkmarked.

And Outlook 2003 doesn't have a To-Do Bar. Otherwise this would be a perfect
fix.

That dialog is from the taskpad's view? If from the taskpad, reset the
view - if that doesn't help, reboot the computer then start outlook using
the /cleanviews command.

BTW - which side of the screen is the problem? The left is the navigation
pane - the right is where the taskpad is.
See http://www.xsolive.com/Outlook%20Scr.../2003tasks.png (you'll
need to zoom it in the browser to read the comments.) Which screen shot do
you have now and which do you want?

Yes, the dialog is from the taskpad view. I am not able to reset the current
view - the button is greyed out.

The thumbnail calendar issue is from the navigation pane (I don't use taskpad
at all).

I don't know what the "/cleanviews command" is. How do I do that?

I don't use TaskPad.
The image I have is most similar is the middle image.
My thumbnail calendar difficulty is in the navigation pane.

So the problem is you have 3 calendar thumbnails on the left and only want
1? How many you see is controlled by the amt of stuff in the navigation
pane. More calendar folders in the list = fewer thumbnail calendars. Views
list (View menu, show in navigation pane command) = fewer calendars. Taller
window = room for more calendars.

You'll also get more calendars in a row if the navigation pane is wide
enough to show more than 1.

Ok, frustration running amok...
- I am running Outlook 2003.
- I don't use TaskPad.
- No buttons have been added/subtracted/moved in the Navigation Panel - it is
exactly the same as it has always been (including width) except for there now
being three thumbnail calendars instead of only one. No other stuff is added
or subtracted from the navigation pane.
- The only change _I_ made in Outlook were in TaskPad and I did that by a
request from this board (please see that message).

So, the Navigation Panel hasn't been changed by me. But it _does_ have more
calendars than it used to. What do I do to fix this issue?

Help...!

the number of calendars shown vertically is dependant on space available -
this is controlled by windows size, number of folders in the pane etc. If
the calendars are not in the taskpad either because the taskpad is not
visible or because the tasks takeup the entire window, the calendars will be
in the navigation pane.
