The directions say, "In Calendar right-clicking a blank area of the calendar
grid" is supposed to open a menu. When I right-click on my teachers and
students edition, nothing happens.
 
What view are you in and where are you right clicking? This will only work
for the month view, not the 7 day view, btw.

Thanks btw for the suggestion, but that is exactly what I have been trying. I
wonder whether the problem may be that I have a Teachers-Students edition of
Windows and whoever wrote the program thought teachrs-students did not work
seven day weeks.
 
The versions of Office programs are the exact same across all SKUs. No
version of Outlook will allow you to view the 7 day view with the weekends
expanded. Only the month view will allow that.

1. What view of the calendar are you using?
2. Where are you right clicking?

Milly: I wonder where you are at this hour of the EST morning. No matter:
Where the Calendar shows four options, 1, 5, 7, and 31, I am using 31, that
is, monthly. I am right clicking all over the calendar grid in the navigation
section, but right-clicking especially in the blank area of the calenddar
grid. Nothing happens, let alone the "Other Settings" for which I look.

Thanks again for responding.

PST so I am 3 hours behind you... question is, what are YOU doing up at this
unghodly hour?!? :)

Okay, so if you can't right click in an empty area in one of the month days,
try this:

View->Current View->Customize Current View->Other Settings - uncheck the
compress weekend days box.

I just reread your post and I know where your problem is. You need to right
click in the CALENDAR itself, not in the navigation pane grid. Select any
empty area in any Monday through Friday date and right click there. You
should see the options - although my previous answer should work as well.

Click to expand...

If you are wanting to do this in the week view, you can easily do this by
making the "work week" seven days long instead of 5. Go to the Tools -->
Options menu selection, then select the Preferences tab and click on the
Calendar Options button.

On that page near the top, it has check boxes for the calendar work week.
That allows you to select which days are your work week. If you check all
seven days, you'll get a "Work Week" view that shows 7 equal-sized days.
(Note that the button fcor the Work week will still show the number 5.)
