Can I Make Calendar Overlay my Default View?

I have my personal calendar and a shared public calendar. I have
found how to go to the calendar shortcut, select the two calendars,
and then overlay them. However, if I go to the folder view that
overlay view goes away. Also, if I restart Outlook, I have to go
through all of the work to reset that view up again.

I found the "save calendar choice" freeware application mentioned in
this forum elsewhere but this did not seem to really do the trick.
For one thing, it only saves the view choice as side-by-side.

Really, what I want to do is save my default calendar view to always
show these two calendars overlayed. Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks!
 
you can only make them overlay in the calendar module, not folder list.

Is there any other solution for my problem? Can I sync my calendar to
the public calendar so it will automatically make changes from the
public calendar on mine?
 
No, Outlook doesn't provide a way to sync the two calendars. You'd need to
use a utility to sync the public calendar to your personal calendar.
