I would like to print a day of my calendar that includes all of that days
events and at least the subject and the categories I have assigned to each
event. I went throug the help menu, but couldn't find anything on how to
include the categories when it prints. Any ideas?
 
The Calendar Details style should include all the information about each appointment.

Hey Sue,

I have Outlook 2002, and if I print in Calendar Details style it does not
include the categories, and if I click on define styles there is no option to
include the categories

Thanks,
Roy
 
Drat. I was sure that it did. But I've been wrong plenty of times before. If that's the case, you may have to go to a code solution. My sample at http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=24 would be a good place to start if you don't mind tinkering with VBA a little bit. It doesn't currently include Categories, but you could easily replace Location with Categories if you didn't want to add a column.

Hey Sue.

Sorry. I went to the link and it's way out of my league (I suppose the fact
that I have no idea what VBA is should have tipped me off). I'm pretty good
at following through through with specific instructions if it's assumed I
know nothing about programming. You know: click on file. Choose New mail
message etc...
 
It's not too hard. If you need VBA Basics, see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vbabasics.htm

Once you have VBA working, copy and paste the code sample into the ThisOutlookSession module in Outlook VBA, then replace Location with Categories in the code.

Okay. I went to http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vbabasics.htm and copy and
pasted the ThisOutlookSession module in Outlook VBA, then replace Location
with Categories in the code. I closed the VBA environment and hit Alt-F8
from the mail outlook window and then run. It opened an email with the next
days appointments in it. They did show the categories.

I can cut the body of the email and paste it into word if I need to. Is
there a way to make it bring up several days in a row?
