Well, I don't have it as an option under "view" in day, week, or in month
mode. Nothing is automatically previewed.... How can I enable it with no
option for it under "View" ?

Not true. AutoPreview can apply to all types of items.

As I mentioned in my earlier message, the Calendar folder has a built-in Day/Week/Month with AutoPreview view. It shows AutoPreview in Day mode.

Ok, I googled the Auto-Preview feature, and it seems to only apply when
viewing your MAIL items, not your calendar as we have been discussing. When
I have my inbox seleceted, click view, I see I have the options for "reading
pane" as well as "auto preview" however when my calendar is selected, and I
click view, I ONLY have the option for "reading pane" ... there is no "auto
preview" listed at all.

If by auto preview you mean the "reading pane", no. That is exactly what I
am trying to avoid using. There is plenty of space in the "time block" to
display the details and I have seen pictures of it online. I do not want to
use the preview pane as it takes up entirely too much space. For now I've
resorted to putting all the information (a couple of sentences really) right
in the "Sbubject" and "location" lines. Then I can see all the info without
having to open it or use the preview pane.

Maybe this will help. I've taken a screenshot of my calendar with the "View"
selection open. It is in Day view, and u can see that there is no option for
"autopreview". The indormation in the actual appointment was all enetered in
the "subject" and "location" lines not the details or notes box.
