Bold dates aren't bold enough

Hi,

I'm using Outlook 2007. In the Calendar, I have enabled the "Bolded dates in
Date Navigator represent days containing items" option, but the problem is
that it's almost impossible to tell which dates are bold and which aren't.
The equivalent in Outlook 2003 was much clearer, as the bold dates were
obviously bold.

Is there any way in Outlook 2007 to make bold days bolder, as it were...?

Any assistance gratefully received.

What Windows Theme are you using? What Office Theme as well?

Anybody...???
 
Twice you were told "No". The fonts and colors are controlled mostly by
Windows themes/schemes and you can affect some font formatting but some
things are hard coded into Outlook and can't be changed. Fonts are also
affected by the screen resolution - I've noticed on low resolutions regular
text looks bolded so you might try a higher resolution.

You can try playing with theme settings to see if it helps... but any
changes there will affect more than Outlook and you'll need to figure out
which setting apply to which outlook features.

themes I'm using...
