Is there a way to create a button in the toolbar that changes the view to
biweekly (ie: 2 week view)? By default, buttons exist for month and week,
but week is too short, and the month view is missing lots of info when
displayed on a 1024x768 screen.

Please advise.
 
No, but you can create a 2 week view by swiping the selected weeks in the date navigator while Outlook's calendar is set to a one day view. In Outlook 2003 and 2007, this view will persist through shutdown and reopen.

I've been using the "drag weeks" approach in Outlook 2003, but it has not
persisted thru shutdown and reopen. Each time Outlook opens, it defaults to
the Mail view, and when I click Calender, the default is month view. Is
there a registry setting to enable your approach?
 
No, it just works. And I don't have rights to edit the registry on my work machine so if there were a registry hack, I could never have applied it.

I always open Outlook to my calendar view - the in-box can wait until I figure out what I will be doing that day.

No. There is not a registry hack. There is also not a view.
