I seem to have to press Alt+O to get to favorites, then Alt+O again to get
to Today and then Enter to actually highlight the current day.

I was just wondering if there was a way to do it in one operation instead of
three.

Thanks for your patience

That is very helpful. No more questions!
Thanks a lot
 
Hi. I'm using Outlook 2003. In Calendar, I prefer the 7-day week view.
Previously today's date was indicated by an orange bar. In changing some
computer setup, that went away. How can I get that back, or even have the
entire day highlighted? I've read all the posts here and nothing helps.
Thanks.

Did you change your Windows theme? That is the only thing I know that
affects the highlight.

I found a good way of highlighting today's appointments in weekly and monthly view using conditional formatting:

. go to Edit - Automatic Formatting
. click Add
. in the Name field enter "Today"
. in the Label field choose a color
. click on Condition...
. on Appointments and Meetings tab where it says Time:
. choose "starts"
. choose "today"
. click OK
. click OK
