I would like to view two months at a time in Outlook Calendar - I saw this
done by a friend not long ago but can't figure out how he did it.

TIA for any info on how the above can be accomplished.
 
In the little navigation calendars? Drag the edge that divides the calendar
from the navigation calendars in so that it's wider than two calendar
thumbnails. If you use the taskpad, you can drag the edge that separates the
tasks from the navigation calendar down another calendar height.

Hi Diana,

I agree that it displayed that way under a Win2k OS but under WinXP, it
displays differently. The mini calendars are on the top left now and can
only be dragged left/right. The Navigation pane appears below it and won't
let me resize downwards. I really really want to be able to view at least 4
months at a time and make that Navigation Pane disappear since it appears in
my main window anyway.
Any suggestions?

Move your cursor to the right side of the calendar until you see the double
arrows. Then drag it to the left. Otherwise, use View->Taskpad view. This
will also give you the Date Navigator.

Can you advise how to view them underneath each other rather than side by side?

Many thanks.

drag the divider under the navigator calendar down. if using outlook 2003,
the size of the navigation area is controlled by the other items in the left
panel - hide other calendars and the view selector if shown.

Eureka!!!!!! I found it. I went to view, in Calendar, then "arrange by",
then unclicked "show views in navigation pane." That gave me my 2 calendars!
Thanks for all your help.

"Bless you for your attempt. I am using Outlook 2003, Windows Professional.
In the left navigation pane (calendar view) I have 1 calendar, My claendars,
Current View (with a lot of radio dials, then 2 hypertexed links: "Open
current calendar," Customize current view, " and then finally what I think is
called the task bar, anyhow it has the 5 icons for mail, calendar, contacts,
notes, and folder. The line above that is the only one that is resizable and
can only extend upward at this point.

I can't seem to get the double pointed arrow that would allow me to drag
down the divider under the calendar at the top. In fact the only line I can
drag is the bottom one above the icons which allows them to expand.

Thanks for your help. I did read a post that would let me have them on the
right side of the screen using the task pad option, but that would be a
second choice. Wierd why this is such a difficult thing to do. And I really
appreciate your help.

How do you "hide other calendars"?
I'm using Outlook 2003.
In my Navigation Pane I have two mini calendars, a "My Calendars" section
then the buttons for Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, and Notes.

I want to hide the "My Calendars" section but can't figure out how to do that.

I don't think you can hide the "My Calendars" section when in the Calendars
view of the Navigation Pane.
