I really don't see any use for the tabs and I find them annoying. Can anyone
help me remove them?
 
No, but they only show if more than one calendar is visible... so either
uncheck the other calendars or overlay them (so the one with handles is
under the others). you may need to change views to make the handle disappear
once a calendar has them.
 
I don't have more than one calendar visible. I have no other calenders to
check or uncheck. What is an overlay? How did the calendar acquire the
handles? Why on earth did anyone think this "feature" was beneficial? Why
do they include such a "feature" without also giving a way to remove it if it
isn't seen as a benefit to the user? Who is helping whom here? Argh!
Programers! Not always helpful!
 
it's handy if you need to see the next appointment... I don't have it on my
default calendar at all. So its either not on the default calendar or is
only visible if the previous or next appointment is outside a specific time
frame. The calendars where I see the handles go months between appointments,
while they are weekly on the default calendar.
 
Okay...how do I get access to my "default calendar" and can I change the
defaults once I have access?
 
that should be your default calendar then. when is the next appointment?
when was the previous appointment?
 
ok... after much playing around (because I have appointments or events on
nearly every date in the calendar for several months in advance), the
handles will be present if the dates visible on the screen (day, week or
month) do not have appointments or events. Add an appointment and the
handles disappear. You can't turn them off, other than by either adding
appointments to the calendar or using a view that shows at least 1
appointment. (i.e., if you prefer the month view, add a recurring event to
the 1st day of the month, if you like week views, you'll need an event on at
least one day of that week).
 
Ok i got it. If there are no appointments in this weeks calendar outlook opts to show previous or next appointments tabs. ... SO i made a generic appointment somewhere on the calendar (not visible ie at 4am) to make those tabs disappear. a silly work around if you don't want to see those tabs or if you print the calendars to post weekly meetings (or lack here of) like i do.
