Converting Outlook calendar to Word document

I have a new computer which uses Windows 2000. In Windows 98 I had a really neat feature that allowed me to convert my Outlook calendar to a Word document. I saved the file but it does not work with my new system. Does anyone have a file like this that works with Windows 2000? I would be in Word, click on New, then on Other Documents, click on my calendar file and Word would open a document and put all my Outlook calendar info in this document. It was easy to edit and make easier to read for my boss. Any suggestions

Thank you.

My guess is that the solution I am about to suggest is
the same one you are using now. Read below for
security settings that may be causing you grief.

Sue Mosher's "Slipstick" site has a great calendar printer that
is a Word template...Very easy to use...

http://www.slipstick.com/addins/gallery/index.htm#myolcal
"My Outlook Calendar: Customizable Word template for generating
Outlook weekly and monthly calendars. Print any Outlook calendar
that you have access to, including calendars from other users'
mailboxes and Public Folders. Add color coding by category or by
type of item (one-day event, multiple-day event, etc.) Specify time
and date formats and the title for the calendar. Slower than the
Microsoft template, but it does much more and follows progress in
the status bar."

This is a template file. You can just open it by
double clicking it (this will open it up in Word).
If your Security is set too high in Word you may
have to lower it to run it.

Open Word
Select the TOOLS menu
Select MACRO
Select SECURITY...
Set to MEDIUM or LOW

Then open Outlook
Select your Calendar folder
Open the MY OUTLOOK CALENDAR template

If the macro still doesn't run immediately, look for
a button on your Word Toolbar called RESTART
Press it and wait a few seconds...
