If you need to see today on top, use the week view. If you want the whole
month, uncompress weekends. To see two or more weeks, see
http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/2wk_cal.htm.

Every time a user customizable option is added it has the potential to add
bugs to previously working features so only features which are heavily
requested are considered. Many that are considered are determined to have
unwanted side effects. While I don't know where this request falls, I do
know most people either don't care or use the week view.

Outlook has always worked like this and complaints only come up once or
twice a year - during long months when compressed weekends mess up the
calendar. While this wasn't the reason compressed weekends was removed from
Outlook 2007, there will be fewer support calls from Outlook 2007 users
thanks to its removal. (Compressed weekends were removed for calendar
overlay support.)

Thanks, Brian. At least your answer tells me there is no 'fix.' It's
hard
to conceive of how some folks don't consider it a flaw. I can't even see
today's schedule without additional clicking every time I check it. Even
if
this is the default view, at a minimum there should be customizable
options
to, for example, put the current week at the top of the calendar.
