Default How to make different colour-coded categories in Calendar vs. BC M

Hi there,
Does anyone know how to make the personalised colour-coded categories for
calendar (i.e. meeting, personal, reminder, vacation...) different from those
for contacts (i.e. friend, coworker, client, prospective client...)???

Any help or advice would be MUCH appreciated!

In OL07 you can choose one of 25 colors for every category, and by adding a
leading character you can group categories. For instance, begin every
category that should be used only for appointments with ". meeting", ".
personal" etc., and begin the contacts' categories with "@ friend", "@
coworker" etc.
